Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A North African Beauty Brading Her Hair by Willem de Famars Testas was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in June 2001. The price achieved of NLG 3,760.00 (€ 1,807.23) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as NLG 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Admittedly, works by Willem de Famars Testas have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Dutch the Well And Sycamore In Ezbekieh Square, Cairo in May 2011 with an auction result of GBP 11,250.00 (€ 12,864.41).
