This artwork by Johannes Leemans achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in December 2011. In the European Noble and Private Collections auction, the work A 'trompe l'oeil' still life with a bird in a cage, a hunting horn, a bird whistle, and other hunting implements hanging on a wall sold for EUR 29,800.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 15,000.00.
