The work Three Hands on a Piano / Ellyn in Profile by Lee Godie was auctioned at Christies in New York in January 2018. It achieved a price of USD 5,000.00 (€ 4,023.17), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 67%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Lee Godie; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Mona Lisa and Prince Charming sold at auction in January this year with the realized price of USD 8,190.00 (€ 7,542.83).
