In January 2014 Sothebys in New York held the auction Old Master Drawings, which included the work A Cock Fight In A Poultry Yard by Frans Snyders. The »bidding war« ended at USD 17,500.00 (€ 12,962.96), 46% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frans Snyders achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A larder with a draped table laden with game, a lobster, vegetables and fruit in a basket, and kraak porcelain, with a parrot and two hounds in December 2018 with an auction result of GBP 1,112,750.00 (€ 1,239,702.19).

Im Januar 2014 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Old Master Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Cock Fight In A Poultry Yard von Frans Snyders zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 17.500,00 (€ 12.962,96) und damit 46% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frans Snyders erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A larder with a draped table laden with game, a lobster, vegetables and fruit in a basket, and kraak porcelain, with a parrot and two hounds im Dezember 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.112.750,00 (€ 1.239.702,19).
