    Abstract:
    The status of photo archives in art history and museum history has – for many years now – captured the attention of interdisciplinary researchers resulting, for example, in the re-evaluation of photographs as material objects and working tools. The scope of this paper is to connect this approach to the question of the use of photographs in the art market, in particular the auction market.
