Condition Report:
Please note the colors and shades in the online catalogue illustration may vary depending on screen settings.

This print is in generally excellent condition. There is a tiny area of soiling near the right edge of the mount. The upper left edge of the mount near the corner is bumped.

Karen Haas's and Rebecca Senf's book, 'Ansel Adams in the Lane Collection,' publishes the most comprehensive list to date of the studio stamps and labels Adams used throughout his career. Our dating of this print is based upon the authors' assessment of the use dates of stamp 11 on the reverse of the mount: 1973 through 1977.

Provenance:
Acquired directly from the photographer in the 1980s by the present owner
