The work Dead tree, Sunset Crater, National Monument, Arizona by Ansel Adams was sold in the Photographs auction at Phillips in New York in January 2008. The »bidding war« ended at USD 5,250.00 (€ 3,537.50), 50% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ansel Adams achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Grand Tetons and the Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming in December 2020 with an auction result of USD 988,000.00 (€ 807,849.55).

Die Arbeit Dead tree, Sunset Crater, National Monument, Arizona von Ansel Adams wurde im Januar 2008 in der Auktion Photographs bei Phillips in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 5.250,00 (€ 3.537,50) und damit 50% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ansel Adams erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Grand Tetons and the Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 988.000,00 (€ 807.849,55).
