At Lamas BolaƱo, they sell on 12 May 2015 an "Italian school, 17th century" Banquet of King Balthasar, estimated at 4,000 Euro.
It looks very similar to (though much darker than) some paintings by Louis de Caullery (1580-1621) with the same subject. The top one is for sale at 26,000 Euro, the damaged bottom one was sold last year for 900 Euro only. The one for sale now seems a very fine example, if one looks beyond the dark colour, and should be worth the estimate and then some.
