"The most expensive photograph ever sold was not by a photographer, nor was the photograph taken by the artist. “The New Jeff Koons (1980)” is a primary-school photograph of the artist sitting with a box of crayons, mounted as a black-and-white, 40-x-30-inch (102-x-76cm) transparency on a lightbox and sold in 2013 for $9.4m.
