This artwork by Cornelis Decker achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in May 2006. In the Old Master Pictures auction, the work A Wooded River Landscape With Figures Conversing Outside A Ruinous Building sold for EUR 18,000.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 10,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cornelis Decker - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A river landscape with a woman at the door of a cottage and a fisherman bringing in his catch, which sold at auction in July 2016 for GBP 47,500.00 (€ 56,440.28).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Cornelis Decker erzielte im Mai 2006 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master Pictures wurde die Arbeit A Wooded River Landscape With Figures Conversing Outside A Ruinous Building für EUR 18.000,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 10.000,00.
