The work Two Lines Leaning Bronze by George Rickey was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2021. It achieved a price of USD 25,000.00 (€ 20,501.89), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Rickey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work One Fixed Four Jointed Lines in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 519,000.00 (€ 465,512.60).
