238:, Scull suffered from a heart attack and stroke that resulted in her death. Scull has been immortalized as "the Mom of Pop Art." She and her husband were also the subject of significant criticism because of their accumulated wealth from trading in works of art by living artists who themselves saw no share of any realized profits. For example, the October 18, 1973 Sotheby's Parke Bernet auction where one of their art pieces, originally purchased from a still-living artist for $ 900, sold for $ 85,000.

With the revenue from their first auction in 1965, they established the Robert and Ethel Scull Foundation, the primary goal of which was to support young artists. The Sculls' filed for divorce in 1975. In 1986, Robert Scull died.
