How much Faith Ringgold art is worth depends on its size, historical significance, condition and other factors. In 2024, the artist's Dinner at Gertrude Stein's: The French Collection Part II, #10 sold for more than $1.5 million, establishing a new record for Ringgold's work. Although she worked with diverse media, including painting and sculpture, Ringgold is best known for her story quilts, composed of fabric, acrylic paints, black felt pen and specialty canvas. These pieces draw inspiration from traditional quilt-making and communicate sociopolitical messages to viewers. To find out how much a particular piece may be worth, consult a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. Shop a selection of art on 1stDibs.
