This artwork by Petrus Staverenus achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2019.

This high result makes Personification of the five senses: Sight: A young woman pointing; Hearing: A man counting coins; Smell: A laughing man smoking a pipe; Taste: A laughing man with an upturned glass; and Touch: A man operating on another man the most expensive artwork by Petrus Staverenus that we have observed at auctions so far.
