The work Ships Offshore, A View Of Rotterdam Beyond by Willem van Diest was sold in the Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in July 2013. It achieved a price of GBP 23,750.00 (€ 27,138.51), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 58%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Willem van Diest; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Smalschepen offshore as a storm approaches sold at auction in November 2001 with the realized price of EUR 49,350.00.
