This incredibly lovely book is a comprehensive view of a life time of photographic work by the well-known artist
Ansel Adams. Most people will know his gorgeous landscapes, many done in the National Parks.
What many may not know is the breadth of work that he actually did over a time period of approximately 60
years. Included in this one book is everything from those magnificient black and white images of natural settings,
to portraits of fellow artists (such as Georgia O'Keeffe), and images of buildings and monuments. The notes in
the back about the photographs are brief, but give essential information to understanding both Adams and his
images.
What's more, this book is a tremendous bargain at $40. Art books of this quality are generally far more
expensive.
For anyone who loves black and white photography, nature photography, or just has an appreciation for some of
the USA's most outstanding sites, this book is a must have.
For anyone who loves great art, this book is a necessity.
