Horta, from Belgium, sells on 20 March 2017 a "Flemish School, 17th Century" Passage of the Red Sea, a panel of 76 by 109 cm estimated at 750 to 1,000 Euro.
Another version of the same work, with nearly identical dimensions, is listed at the RKD as (after?) Hans Jordaens III (1595-1643), from a church in Zutphen, the Netherlands.
Other versions of the same image have appeared on the art market a few times recently, but I frustratingly only have some small images, and no knowledge of where these were offered or for how much. Wildly differing formats, the third one seems to be a fragment only though, but probably otherwise the best (or the best conserved) of the lot. Strangely enough that one is only attributed to "Circle of Hans Jordaens III"...
The one for sale needs a good cleaning, and certainly isn't the best version of the work: but at the current estimate it is very cheap, and it should fetch 2,000 to 3,000 Euro.
UPDATE: sold for only 800 Euro.
