This artwork by Aaron Shikler achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in September 2008. In the American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction, the work Portrait Of Christina Patterson, 5 Years Old sold for USD 43,750.00 (€ 31,070.24) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00.
