The brothers Ned, Roger and Stephen Landau decided to sell the painting after his mother's death. The canvas hung in the house from the 1930s, when it was purchased on sale.

It is noteworthy that the auction began at $ 250 and quickly reached $ 800. After that, buyers from France and Germany joined the auction and raised rates to five thousand dollars. Soon the price reached 100 thousand, and then 450 thousand dollars. The last bet was made by a buyer from France, who offered $ 1.

1 million for the canvas.

As it turned out, the canvas is included in the series, which the Dutch artist wrote at the beginning of the 17th century. Each of the five paintings symbolizes one of the senses.

The deal value is estimated at four million dollars.

As previously reported in URA-Inform, during the harvesting in the Vatican Museums, 500 years old canvases of the brilliant Italian artist Raphael Santi were discovered, written shortly before his death.
