This artwork by Hermanus Petrus Schouten achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2018. In the Old Master & British Drawings & Watercolours auction, the work A view of the Nieuwe Korenbeurs on the Damrak, Amsterdam, the tower of the Oude Kerk beyond sold for GBP 5,250.00 (€ 5,886.40) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hermanus Petrus Schouten - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Village By A Wide River, which sold at auction in July 2012 for GBP 13,750.00 (€ 17,513.80).
