The work A Smoker by Jan van Bijlert was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2010. It achieved a price of USD 40,625.00 (€ 29,289.83), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Admittedly, works by Jan van Bijlert 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 young boy, full-length, in an embroidered yellow dress and white lace collar and cuffs, a cane in his left hand, proferring a biscuit to a dog begging on a table, before a red curtain in January 2007 with an auction result of GBP 131,200.00 (€ 197,950.70).
