A top price for Willem van Herp - as previously expected
The work Tavern With Merrymakers And Cardplayers by Willem van Herp was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2014. The price achieved of GBP 68,500.00 (€ 88,182.22) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Tavern With Merrymakers And Cardplayers is the most expensive artwork by Willem van Herp that we have observed at auctions so far.
