According to the Independent
, a European businessman
purchased this photo of a potato for 1 million euros ($1,086,950). Of
course, it’s probably not the potato itself that made the photograph so
pricey. It was taken by acclaimed photographer Kevin Abosch in 2010 and
is one of three versions of the print in existence.
Abosch
says it’s the most expensive photo he’s ever sold, and most of his work
typically goes for around $280,000. So if any photo of a potato is ever
going to be worth $1 million, it seems this would be the one.
Still, that’s an absurd price to pay for
a photo of
a potato.
