The work Portrait of Margery (Mrs. Carlyle Brown) by Carlyle Brown was worth GBP 3,500.00 (€ 4,092.07) to a buyer in December 2016. This price was achieved in the auction A Surreal Legacy: Selected works of art from The Edward James Foundation at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 1,000.00 many times over.
