I dont understand this hammer price. Sold for $4,000. I love John Ford but this is a " bit" too much.
John Wayne Image during the filming of The Searchers Monument Valley, Arizona-Utah. [1955] ESTATE STAMPED - ARCHIVAL PIGMENT PRINT Photographer: John R. Hamilton Size: 22x30 inches - (Edition 3 of 35) - Framed
I happened to see this earlier. Great shot.
If you look at some "fine art" type auctions that have similar works, this result does not seem so high.
I've been getting into photography a little bit, and have checked out some current auctions, and past results. There are some remarkable sales for stuff like this (limited edition, famous photographer and/or subject, etc.)
