Sold at the upper estimate price
The work A Quayside Scene With Traders Unloading Goods by Philips Wouwerman was sold in the Old Master & British Works on Paper auction at Sothebys in London in July 2019. The auction ended at the price of GBP 35,000.00 (€ 38,427.67), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Philips Wouwerman achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The departure of a hunting party in July 2010 with an auction result of GBP 1,217,250.00 (€ 1,463,605.98).
