Synopses & Reviews
From 1984 to 1976 Ansel Adams produced seven portfolios, each a limited edition of 10 to 15 signed photographic prints. This book reproduces all 90 of these superb images, including many of Adam's most famous monumental landscape photographs and some remarkable, less familiar portraits and architectural studies.
