Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The interior of a church with two gentlemen conversing in the foreground by Emanuel de Witte was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2003. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 100,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 106,050.00 (€ 150,205.93). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Emanuel de Witte - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Interior of the Oude Kerk, Amsterdam, with a trompe l'oeil curtain and frame, which sold at auction in December 2021 for GBP 500,000.00 (€ 596,395.12).
