In September 2003 Christies in London held the auction Exploration and Travel, which included the work Deer Hunters in a Winter Landscape by Cornelius Krieghoff. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 45,410.00 (€ 45,740.25), 51% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cornelius Krieghoff - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Visitors In Winter, which sold at auction in November 2012 for CAD 221,000.00 (€ 171,041.43).
