In May 2021 Christies in New York held the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale, which included this untitled work by Sheila Hicks. The »bidding war« ended at USD 60,000.00 (€ 49,204.53), 71% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Sheila Hicks; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Soft Stone Fiber Sculpture Orange. sold at auction in June this year with the realized price of EUR 66,000.00.
