Op de Amsterdamse ‘AAG Auctioneers‘ veiling (Classic To Contemporary Art) op maandag 19 juni 2023 is deze prachtige tekening/schets op papier van de Amsterdamse schilder Carel Willink geveild.
De veiling was buitengewoon succesvol. Mede dankzij de promotie die ‘ONTZAMELEN’ rondom dit stuk heeft gevoerd, is er aanzienlijk overboden. De uiteindelijke ‘Hamerprijs’ (bod) lag aanzienlijk hoger dan aanvankelijk werd ingeschat.
