Watched a documentary on this man's life last night. He was a very interesting character and actually set to become a concert pianist. He was instrumental in preserving the concept of "wilderness" in America after the frontier was declared "closed" and created a vast protected area in the Sierra Nevada.
In reply to Removed User: Might have been the film they showed in edinburgh while they had some of his photo's on display. very inspirational. It's just a shame that the gallery added £30 to the price of their prints just because of the artist.
Saw the exhibition in Edinburgh 3 times because I think some of his work is sensational. Would love to own a print or 2 but as the other poster commented they were a bit steep.
