This artwork by Nickolas Muray achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in New York in September 2010. In the LATIN AMERICA auction, the work Frida Kahlo in New York sold for USD 13,750.00 (€ 10,109.55) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Nickolas Muray - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Selected Images Including Portraits Of Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera And Miguel Covarrubias, which sold at auction in April 2019 for USD 35,000.00 (€ 31,247.21).
