The value of a photograph is something that has very particular characteristics and can certainly vary greatly depending on the look of the person analyzing the image. After all, one gaze may end up rated much more than another by the simple meaning that this vision can bring to the photo as well as the beauty represented, the difficulty in embossing the eternal vision, the rarity of this photograph, in short, the criteria can be quite diverse.
Whatever aspect of the value included in a photograph, professional Andreas Gursky has a constant habit of being in tune with the taste of art lovers. Unsurprisingly, if a list contains only the ten most expensive images in the history of photo auctions, the name of the German born in the city of Leipzig will undoubtedly be a constant presence.

The basic principle of a professional born in 1955 is to capture great environments with his digital camera, with the perspective expanded in dimensions always very large. Maximum level, his photo valued at the highest price (Reno II, made in 1999 and sold about $14. 3 million) was printed on a scale of 3. 5 mx 2 m.
Geometry in favor of a landscape with almost astonishing features is also a strength in the face of the work of the professional who, if until 2016 used to play in various personal exhibitions in countries such as Germany, Denmark, the United States and the United Kingdom. He has recently organized exhibitions almost exclusively with other artists.
Having started in January of the same year until April 2018, Andreas Gursky is currently commissioned to hold an exhibition at the Hayward Gallery in London where not only the 50th anniversary of the place is celebrated, but also the first exhibition after a period of renovations and improvements lasted about two years.
