The work For a good Boy by Mary Hayllar was auctioned at Christies in London in February 2003. It achieved a price of GBP 26,290.00 (€ 38,382.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 46%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mary Hayllar - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Tennis Party, which sold at auction in July 2007 for GBP 81,600.00 (€ 121,194.84).
