This artwork by Marin-Marie achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in January 2008. In the Maritime Art Including Fine Paintings, Nautical Antiques, Scrimshaw And Ship Models auction, the work A clipper ship in calm waters sold for USD 13,750.00 (€ 9,264.87) - well above the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Marin-Marie - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work View of a dockyard with a three-master lying alongside a quay, which sold at auction in May 2011 for GBP 20,625.00 (€ 23,584.75).
