This Richard Prince photograph set the record Tuesday night for the most expensive photograph sold at auction: $1,248,000.
And strangely enough, it’s actually a “re-photograph” — a photo of a Marlboro cigarette ad! Prince had worked for Time/Life in the ’70s and began collecting the ads and photographing portions of them.
At Sotheby’s last night, this David Smith fetched a record $28.3 mill. Actually, it was this David Smith. Big diff.
