World's most expensive photo

Kopya ng Rhine II (larawan mula sa BBC)

Nagkakahalaga ng P187,813,665 ($4.3m) ang larawan na nakikita ninyo sa itaas. Ang imahe ay photograph ni German artist Andreas Gursky at nabili ito sa nasabing halaga ng isang German collector, ayon sa British Broadcasting Company, sa isang auction ng Christies ng New York.


Kuha ito ni Gursky noong 1999 at ginawang digital image upang maalis ang ilang bagay sa photograph na aniya'y nakakasira sa picture.

Ipinaliwanag ni Gursky na  "a particular place with a view over the Rhine which has somehow always fascinated me, but it didn't suffice for a picture as it basically constituted only part of a picture".

"In the end I decided to digitalise the pictures and leave out the elements that bothered me," aniya.
