The work A farm scene with peasants, cattle, chickens and a goat by Hendrik Willem Schweickhardt was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2011. It achieved a price of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 10,041.93), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hendrik Willem Schweickhardt - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 'Boeren Buijtenvreugt': a wedding dance in a village, which sold at auction in May 2002 for EUR 35,850.00.
