A top price for Marion Grace Hocken - as previously expected
In March 2004 Christies in London held the auction AT HOME - BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PICTURES AND WORKS OF ART, which included the work Still life of chrysanthemums in a glass vase, with a statue of herons to the side by Marion Grace Hocken. The price achieved of GBP 418.25 (€ 626.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Still life of chrysanthemums in a glass vase, with a statue of herons to the side is the most expensive artwork by Marion Grace Hocken that we have observed at auctions so far.

Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 418,25 (€ 626,08) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben worden.
