The work 100 Suns: 072 OAK, 2003; and Full Moon #10 by Michael Light was sold in the Photographs auction at Phillips in New York in January 2008. It achieved a price of USD 4,000.00 (€ 2,695.24), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 60%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Michael Light; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Composite of Harrison Schmitt and the Lunar Rover at "Split Rock", Photographed by Eugene Cernan, Apollo 17, December 7-19, 1972 from Full Moon sold at auction in November 2010 with the realized price of GBP 3,375.00 (€ 4,033.12).
