Ansel Adams: Photographs of the Southwest, signed first editionADAMS, ANSEL.  Photographs of the Southwest

"My Southwest experience has been more or less continuous; the images are arranged for flow of meaning rather than location and time. What and who make small difference in the presence of the eternal worlds and the indelible memory of emotional and aesthetic experience."

Oblong quarto, gilt-lettered cloth; photo-pictorial dust jacket. Boston: New York Graphic Society, (1976). A hint of toning to spine. A nearly fine copy. $650.
