This artwork by David Cornelisz. De Heem achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in January 2013. In the Old Master Paintings Part II auction, the work Grapes, A Lemon, Oysters, A Chestnut, Blackberries And Other Citrus Fruits On A Stone Ledge With Butterflies, A Fly, A Bee And Ants sold for USD 35,000.00 (€ 25,765.61) - well above the upper estimate of USD 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Cornelisz. De Heem - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A tulip, pink roses, a crown imperial lily and other flowers in a glass vase, all on a stone ledge, surrounded by butterflies, which sold at auction in November 2010 for EUR 67,000.00.
