This artwork by Thomas Maclay Hoyne achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in February 2004. In the Maritime auction, the work The widow maker sold for USD 28,680.00 (€ 23,052.81) - well above the upper estimate of USD 10,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Thomas Maclay Hoyne; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The Puritan of Gloucester sold at auction in January 2007 with the realized price of USD 55,200.00 (€ 42,468.07).
