Photography is a decidedly growing sector, even if it is still small and expressly involves enthusiasts of "preserved" images in history or "fascinating" works by great international photographers. The best place for these exchanges is always New York, where every year many collectors arrive for the "specialist" auctions, reserved for London and Paris for different but always very intriguing occasions.
