An artist's worked I have looked at is Andreas Gursky who is from Germany. His work appears quite large scale and nothing is close up, it always looks to be the 'bigger picture' in his images, most of the photos are vast, they are on a grand scale. His images are very colourful and most of his work, images are busy. There is always a lot going on and always plenty to look at in the image. His panoramic images can be very big up to 6 feet but never losing the detail and seeing such mass and detail on such a scale is incredible to see and is eye catching, very hard to miss. All his images are taken either from a distance on the ground or a higher up vantage point looking down on the subject matter.
One of his photographs 'Rhein //' (below) sold in 2011 for £2.7m making it the most expensive photograph ever sold in the world.
