In January 2010 Sothebys in New York held the auction Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture, which included the work Profile Portrait Of A Bearded Man by Jacob Adriaensz. Backer. The »bidding war« ended at USD 40,625.00 (€ 29,289.83), 35% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Jacob Adriaensz. Backer have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait of a gentleman, half-length, in a black coat with a white collar and cuffs, wearing a black hat, a glove in his right hand, before a column and a red curtain in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 122,500.00 (€ 173,663.86).
