Adams (1902-1984) is perhaps one of the most recognized artists in American photography.
This important exhibition of 47 gelatin silver photographs by Adams consists of some of his best-loved works.
They encompass the full scope of his work including elegant details of nature, architectural studies, portraits and breathtaking landscapes.
Adams' photographs are known for their familiar subject matter interpreted with luminous clarity and simplicity.
