This artwork by Werner van den Valckert achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in April 2001. In the Important Old Master Pictures auction, the work Portrait of a lady, aged 30, half-length, in an embroidered burgundy bodice, with a white ruff and white cap, a glove in her right hand sold for GBP 37,600.00 (€ 60,615.91) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Werner van den Valckert - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A girl holding pancakes in a feigned stone window, which sold at auction in December 2018 for GBP 175,000.00 (€ 194,965.52).
