This artwork by Lesley Dill achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in April 2016. In the Prints & Multiples auction, the work Throat sold for USD 2,375.00 (€ 2,075.87) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lesley Dill - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Clothe my Naked Body, Poem Wedding Dress, which sold at auction in July 2014 for USD 8,750.00 (€ 6,534.73).
