Ansel Adam Prints: $200 Million

Ansel Adam Prints: $200 Million

Back in 2000, Rick Norsigian had bought a picture frame that had the Yosemite National Park in it. Since Norsigian was left so captivated by the photo, he did not feel bad that he had to buy the frame for $45. He was more than happy that he got to take home the works of art. After doing some background checking on these photos he was surprised to find out that they were indeed the works of celebrated photographer, Ansel Adams. Norsigian soon listed these photographs at the price of $7,500.  But soon he was left all the more shocked to realize that these photo were worth so much more. How much you ask? The photographs were estimated to be around an unimaginable $200 million. The family of Ansel Adams tried to deny the fact that these were original pieces but then the artists’ hand-writing and dates written on the pictures gave everything away.
