This artwork by George Marks achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2011. In the The Sunday Sale auction, the work A lady, seated small full-length, with a book on her lap in an interior sold for GBP 875.00 (€ 1,004.19) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 500.00. Admittedly, works by George Marks have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Evening: 'There shall be peace at eventide' in March 2008 with an auction result of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,851.55).

Dieses Kunstwerk von George Marks erzielte im Juli 2011 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Sunday Sale wurde die Arbeit A lady, seated small full-length, with a book on her lap in an interior für GBP 875,00 (€ 1.004,19) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von George Marks auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Evening: 'There shall be peace at eventide' im März 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.250,00 (€ 7.851,55).
