Crittenden was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series for writing "Marie's Sculpture." Philip Rosenthal, in the same ceremony, was also nominated for the award for writing "The Angry Family." This was the second time "Everybody Loves Raymond" was nominated for the writing accolade, as Romano and Rosenthal were previously nominated in 2000 for their work on "Bad Moon Rising." Pat Barnett was also nominated for an Eddie Award for Best Editing for a Half-hour Series for Television for her work on the episode. "Marie's Sculpture" made two "TV Guide" lists in the 2000s; it ranked number 62 on its list of the "Top 100 Most Unexpected Moments in TV History" in 2005 and 42 on its 2009 edition of the 100 Greatest Episodes of All-Time, the only "Raymond" episode on that list, with the following caption: "We don’t know art, but we know what we like: this bawdy screamer about a suggestive statue."
