In November 2001 Christies in New York held the auction Nineteenth Century European Art, which included the work Mending Nets by the Shore by Hermanus Koekkoek Sen.. Here, the upper estimate of USD 150,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 154,500.00 (€ 172,471.53). With this result, Mending Nets by the Shore is even the most expensive work of art by Hermanus Koekkoek Sen. that we have observed at auctions so far.
