It was bought for £8,200.
The city`s art students felt the money should be spent to encourage local artists. Over the years. So many people have been inspired by it.So I think it was money well spent.

Dalí used stuntman Russell Saunders.He suspended him from an overhead gantry, so he could see how the body would appear from the desired angle. 1961 a visitor attacked the painting with a stone and tore the canvas with his hands. After a few months it was restored by conservators to public display.
