The work Façade of Versailles with scaffolding, France by Deborah Turbeville was sold in the Photographs auction at Phillips in New York in April last year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 1,764.00 (€ 1,674.10), 47% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Deborah Turbeville - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 'Versailles: Seventeen Images', which sold at auction in October 2017 for USD 6,875.00 (€ 5,902.30).
