The work 'Yosemite Valley From Inspiration Point' by Ansel Adams was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2007. It achieved a price of USD 10,000.00 (€ 6,911.81), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 43%. 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).
