The work A still-life with peaches, apples, grapes, a melon, cherries and vegetation on a stone ledge, with a mouse eating a raspberry and a landscape beyond by Herman Henstenburgh was sold in the Old Master Drawings: Online auction at Christies in London in December 2019. It achieved a price of GBP 17,500.00 (€ 20,682.95), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 46%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Herman Henstenburgh - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A King Bird Of Paradise (Cicinnurius Regius) And A Spiderhunter (Arachnothera), which sold at auction in January 2011 for USD 74,500.00 (€ 54,320.09).
