Auction result well in line with expectations
The work An estuary scene in late afternoon looking towards the lowering sun, with kaags in a light breeze by Lieve Pietersz. Verschuier was sold in the Old Masters Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in July 2021. It changed hands for a price of GBP 37,800.00 (€ 44,328.34) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 30,000.00 – 40,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lieve Pietersz. Verschuier - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sailors unloading cargo from a sailing vessel, moored on a Mediterranean shore, with a rowing boat and a three-master beyond, at dawn, which sold at auction in May 2000 for NLG 304,252.00 (€ 132,849.31).
