This artwork by Colin Jones achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in September 2010. In the Lehman Brothers: Artwork and Ephemera auction, the work Seven Sisters, Dalais Valley, South Wales, 1997 sold for GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,758.97) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Colin Jones - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Newcastle, 1963, which sold at auction in September 2010 for GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,397.42).

In der Auktion Lehman Brothers: Artwork and Ephemera wurde die Arbeit Seven Sisters, Dalais Valley, South Wales, 1997 für GBP 3.250,00 (€ 3.758,97) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 1.500,00.
