This artwork by Joseph William Carey achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in May 2004. In the Irish and 20th Century British Art auction, the work Donaghadee; and Carrickfergus sold for GBP 3,585.00 (€ 5,378.82) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Joseph William Carey; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Theta; a yacht, racing in Belfast Lough sold at auction in May 2000 with the realized price of GBP 4,700.00 (€ 7,541.77).
