Framed Ansel Adams Wall Art

Ansel Adams (20 February, 1902 - 22 April, 1984) was an American photographer who’s one of the most respected photography artists of 20th century. He built a reputation over several years through his quality black and white representations of American wildlife and mountains. Adams’ photographs capture world’s renowned tourist attractions, including national parks and mountainous landscapes of the US. Although he studied piano as a youth, things changed when he met Paul Strand, a professional photographer. His interaction with Strand influenced him to do more in photography. At the outset, it was a bit of a challenge, especially because of the elusiveness of determining the final outcome and the possible emotional impact before taking a shot. However, after years of practice, he mastered the art of capturing stories that have evident emotional undertones. Adams’ 60 years of experience saw him try out several techniques. He also worked with different cameras and experimented with subjects to get his edge. Through photography, he interacted a lot with the environment, sparking in him a strong feeling to protect the environment. That saw him rally together with other environmental conservation activists to lobby for greater efforts in nature protection. His active involvement saw him serve Sierra Club as the director for a period of 37 years, ending 1971. The quality and depth of his originals have seen framed Ansel Adams art sell on diverse platforms. His original works are also exhibited at The Museum of Modern Art and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, both in New York. Adams won several awards, including Hasselblad Award, Presidential Medal of Freedom and Conservation Service Award.
