The work Saint Jerome in the Wilderness by Philippe de Champaigne was sold in the Old Master Paintings from the Lagerfeld Collection auction at Christies in New York in May 2000. The »bidding war« ended at USD 182,000.00 (€ 195,111.49), 30% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philippe de Champaigne - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Holy Family with a Sparrow, which sold at auction in June 2012 for USD 578,500.00 (€ 456,662.46).
