Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A Merry Company Drinking And Smoking In An Interior by Joseph van Aken was sold in the OLD MASTER PICTURES auction at Christies in London in July 2005. The price achieved of GBP 4,800.00 (€ 6,962.35) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Admittedly, works by Joseph van Aken have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A vegetable seller and his son offering wares to a lady and a cleric by a statue of Bacchus; and A vegetable and fruit market by a statue of Venus, with a town by a river beyond in May 2007 with an auction result of GBP 21,600.00 (€ 31,785.86).
