The work Portrait of Agatha de Vlaming van Oudtshoorn (1619-1675), half-length, in an embroidered black dress with red and silver silk decorations, with a white lace collar and cuffs, a pearl necklace and a jewelled tiara by Michiel van Mierevelt was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in May 2012. It achieved a price of EUR 31,000.00 exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 72 %. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michiel van Mierevelt - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of Jan van der Haer (1609-1665), half-length, in a black silk doublet with cutwork, edged with black lace; and Portrait of Levina Ockers (1607-1678), half-length, in a black dress with a double layered lace-trimmed ruff and jewelled collar, which sold at auction in May 2014 for EUR 79,500.00.
