I need this kind of money
And I thought Danny Lyon was the original ruin porn photographer.
the colors in this shot are just so vibrant and captivating. the composition is spot on too. amazing work!
Omg the street doesn’t even line up with the bottom of the pic
How does this compare to the 99 Cent 1999 photograph by Andreas Gursky?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/99_Cent_II_Diptychon
‘The work became famous as being the most expensive photograph in the world when it was auctioned at Sotheby’s on February 7, 2007, for a price of US$3.34 million. Another auction in New York in May 2006 fetched $2.25 million for a second print, and a third print sold for $2.48 million in November 2006 at a New York gallery.[4] These would be the fourth and sixth-most costly photographs sold, as of 2011. On May 12, 2011, Cindy Sherman’s Untitled #96 from 1981 was sold for $3.89 million.’
I was amazed to read this.
I assumed it was that photo of a weasel riding on a kingfishers back.
Seems doubtful since it’s not very publicized.
I think this iceberg probably out-grosses it:

Man, the light on this shot is impossibly soft. Hardly a shadow to be found. Incredible.
Maybe that’s why it looks like a dollhouse/miniature. I can’t believe it’s a real photo.
It’s a great photo but never seen it before but good for the artist. I think I have my sights too low as I’m happy getting paid in alcohol and tacos.
I thought this was Physical Graffiti for a second
I thought it was

from the “Kodak test dataset”, which is commonly used nowadays in deep learning-based image compression.
I believe the IKEA red bicycle photo by Fernando Bengoechea far out-grosses this.
By 2018 it had already sold 427’000 copies… and it’s still selling them at around $50 each.No idea the price history over time, but even of you half the price and just include the copies sold up to 2018 that’s already on par with Girls In Windows.
How soulless do you have to be to buy ikea art?
So he’s made does quick maths enough to get chipotle for lunch. Maybe some guac.
