The work Skyscrapers by Charles Green Shaw was sold in the Two Centuries: American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in October 2021. It achieved a price of USD 40,320.00 (€ 34,903.05), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 61%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Green Shaw achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Plastic Polygon in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 555,000.00 (€ 497,802.49).
