A top price for Henri Cartier-Bresson

In April 2017 Phillips in New York held the auction Photographs, which included the work On the Banks of the Marne, France by Henri Cartier-Bresson. The »bidding war« ended at USD 212,500.00 (€ 195,043.60), 42% above the upper estimate. With this result, On the Banks of the Marne, France is even the most expensive work of art by Henri Cartier-Bresson that we have observed at auctions so far.
