Phillips de Pury & Company’s Photographs Department is a leader in the field of classic and contemporary photography. Sales in New York and London show strong results across all genres of the medium, including works by 20th-century masters such as Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Robert Frank, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Mapplethorpe, Horst P. Horst and Peter Beard, and works by contemporary stars such as Thomas Struth, Florian Maier-Aichen, Desiree Dolron, John Baldessari, Robert Polidori and Edward Burtynsky.

Among the Photographs department’s strengths is our ability to actively pursue and maintain solid relations with key figures in this sector of the market, from curators and collectors to advisors and dealers. This extensive network buttresses our position as a leader in the field, where we consistently set new world record prices for works across the Photographs spectrum as well as produce the best selling percentages in the industry. Our strong results each season attest not only to the market’s growth but also to Phillips de Pury’s commitment to offering only the best works to the most active and competitive buyers.
