Photography is Art.

Bet you have never heard of Richard Prince.

Last November a Photograph of a man on a horse sold for $1,248,000. Yep over a million dollars for a photograph. Why do you think that is?

Here is a few interesting facts.

1. the photo was taken in 1989 not 1898
2. Prince is hailed as a Contemporary Artist, a man of ideas whose chosen medium is, perhaps appropriately, photographic.
3. The dude sold a photo for over a million bucks!!!
