This artwork by Lee Mullican achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in New York in December 2020. In the 20th c. and Contemporary Art Day Sale - Morning Session auction, the work Isis Appearing (Guardian Figure) sold for USD 44,100.00 (€ 36,058.87) - well above the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00.
