Disputed claim

  1. In December 2014, Peter Lik reportedly sold a photograph titled Phantom to an anonymous bidder for $6.5 million, making it potentially the third highest price paid for a photograph.[32][33][34] Lik's claim has been greeted with much scepticism. Claims of the sale have never been proven, and the buyer has not come forward,[35] though a lawyer claiming to represent the buyer claims that the deal was real.[36]
