Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2011 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master and British Drawings Including Property from the Descendants of Walter Brandt, which included the work View Of The Herenstraat, Voorburg, Seen From Oosteinde by Paulus Constantijn la Fargue. The price achieved of GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,476.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Admittedly, works by Paulus Constantijn la Fargue have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Hague, A View Of The Binnenhof Looking North With The Ridderzaal; The Hague, A View Of The Groenmarkt Near The Westeinde Looking West in July 2011 with an auction result of GBP 82,850.00 (€ 95,082.77).

Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Paulus Constantijn la Fargue auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Hague, A View Of The Binnenhof Looking North With The Ridderzaal; The Hague, A View Of The Groenmarkt Near The Westeinde Looking West im Juli 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 82.850,00 (€ 95.082,77).
