Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Master Paintings and Drawings, which included the work Leiden, a view of Koepoort, seen from the road to Zoeterwoude by Paulus Constantijn la Fargue. It changed hands for a price of USD 11,970.00 (€ 10,361.84) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00.
