William Eggleston Art & Prints for Sale

Photographer William Eggleston is known as a pioneer of color photography, and his work has been instrumental in legitimizing the medium as fine art. Taking the everyday as his primary subject matter, he features ordinary people, places, and things in his work, resulting in a slice-of-life portrait of the everyman. Inspired by a variety of artists, from Henri Cartier-Bresson to Andy Warhol, Eggleston uses photography to create portraits that capture the fleeting and captivating moments that take place all around us. Typically photographing his mundane subjects on a large scale, he monumentalizes the seemingly trivial.

Eggleston has been the subject of numerous exhibitions, including a landmark 1976 solo show at the Museum of Modern Art that is widely seen as a turning point in the history of contemporary photography, marking the acceptance of what had been previously considered a purely commercial form of photography. From 2008 to 2011, a major retrospective of his work, William Eggleston: Democratic Camera, Photographs and Videos 1961-2008 toured the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Haus der Kunst in Munich, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art.

How it Works

How bidding works

To place a bid, enter the maximum amount you are willing to pay for the work. Artspace will accept a bid at the next increment, and save any excess amount as a maximum bid. If you are outbid, we will continue bid on your behalf up to your maximum bid.

Bid Increments

Bidding increments increase at the following intervals:

Below $400: $50
Between $400 and $699: $100
Between $700 and $1,499: $200
Between $1,500 and $2,499: $300
Between $2,500 and $4,999: $500
Between $5,000 and $9,999: $1,000

Between $50,000 and $99,999: $5,000
Above $100,000: $10,000

You will receive an email confirmation of your bid and when you are outbid.

If you are the winning bidder, you will be contacted 48 hours after of the close of the auction.

Maximum Bidding

Every bid submitted is treated as a maximum bid. You should always bid the maximum you are willing to spend for a work, though this does not necessarily mean you will pay that price. As the auction unfolds, we will increase your bid by increments to ensure you remain the highest bidder. If the winning amount is less than your maximum bid, you will pay the current increment. If your maximum bid no longer exceeds the current bid, you will receive an outbid notification email, and have the option to bid again.

In the case of multiple bidders placing the same maximum bid, the first person to place the maximum amount takes precedence as the highest bid until another bidder exceeds the maximum amount.

Buyer's Premium & Additional Charges

For Artspace Auctions winning bidders are charged a 15% Buyer's Premium on top of the hammer price. For Artspace Benefit Auctions, Buyer's Premiums are not applied. If they are, this will be clearly noted. Purchases made from all auctions, including benefit auctions, are subject to sales tax.

Check Out

Winning bidders will be contacted within 48 hours to arrange shipping and to provide final price including commission, shipping, and taxes and duties when applicable. Promotion codes cannot be applied to auction works.

* Price listed does not include buyer's premium (if applicable), sales tax, shipping, or handling fees.
