Upper estimate price exceeded by 72 %.

The work A winter landscape with skaters and kolf players on a frozen waterway by a village by Jan van de Cappelle was sold in the Old Master Pictures auction at Christies in London in December 2001. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 861,750.00 (€ 1,407,980.03), 72% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan van de Cappelle - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A kaag and a smak in a calm, with fishermen pulling in their catch from a rowing-boat in the foreground, a Dutch frigate and other boats beyond, which sold at auction in July 2005 for GBP 3,592,000.00 (€ 5,210,162.09).
