- 'WINTER SUNRISE, SIERRA NEVADA, FROM LONE PINE, CALIFORNIA'
mounted, signed in pencil on the mount, a Carmel studio stamp (BMFA 11) on the reverse, 1944, printed in the 1970s (400 Photographs, p. 245)
Condition
This print is in generally excellent condition. There is a slight wave in the print and mount. In raking light, there are extremely faint, barely noticeable mounting air pockets in the upper right sky area.
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. The authors' assessment of the use dates of stamp 11 on the reverse of the print's mount is 1973 to 1977.
