A top price for Maurits van den Kerkhoff
In April 2010 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Old Masters and 19th Century Art, which included the work View of a kampong with possibly the Smeroe in the background by Maurits van den Kerkhoff. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 22,500.00 25% above the upper estimate. With this result, View of a kampong with possibly the Smeroe in the background is even the most expensive work of art by Maurits van den Kerkhoff that we have observed at auctions so far.
