In April 2011 Sothebys in Amsterdam held the auction The BAT Artventure Collection Formerly Known as the Peter Stuyvesant Collection, Part Two, which included the work Song Of Zakintos by Wessel Couzijn. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 22,350.00 49% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wessel Couzijn - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Dutch Afrika Ontwaakt - Rising Africa, which sold at auction in July 2009 for EUR 51,150.00.

Im April 2011 führte Sothebys in Amsterdam die Auktion The BAT Artventure Collection Formerly Known as the Peter Stuyvesant Collection, Part Two durch, in der auch die Arbeit Song Of Zakintos von Wessel Couzijn zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 22.350,00 und damit 49% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Wessel Couzijn mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Dutch Afrika Ontwaakt - Rising Africa beobachtet, die im Juli 2009 für EUR 51.150,00 versteigert wurde.
