|

Sotheby's has posted the results from today's auction session. Two key highlights:

Ansel Adams, 1940s era print of "Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico"
$609,000; 2.5X high estimate of $250,000

William Abbott Pratt, quarter-plate daguerreotype of Edgar Allen Poe
$150,000; 3X high estimate of $50,000

August Sander didn't fare so well, selling below the low estimate. Other spot checks show prices within estimate. Had thought Eliot Porter was in growing demand, but not extraordinarily so.
