About the Exhibition

Eleven photographs document how artists use the camera to capture the sublime beauty and human destruction of the natural world. The exhibition brings together iconic works by Ansel Adams; contemporary examples by Edward Burtynsky, Lynn Davis, and Richard Misrach; and 19th-century pictures by Francis Frith and Carleton Watkins.
