Ansel Adams in Color

The revised and expanded edition of the only book of Ansel Adams's color photography, beautifully redesigned and including previously unpublished images.

Renowned as America's pre-eminent black-and-white landscape photographer, Ansel Adams began to photograph in color soon after Kodachrome film was invented in the mid 1930s. He made nearly 3,500 color photographs, a small fraction of which were published for the first time in the 1993 edition of Ansel Adams in Color.

This revised and expanded edition features 20 unpublished photographs, and uses new digital scanning and printing technologies that deliver a more faithful representation of Adams's color photography.

In a career that spanned six decades, Ansel Adams was at once America's foremost landscape photographer and one of its most ardent environmentalists. His work has been published in a multitude of books, posters, and calendars.

Andrea G. Stillman, who worked with Adams in the 1970s, has edited several books of his photographs and writings, including Letters and Images: 1916-1984, Our National Parks, and Ansel Adams: 400 Photographs. She lives in New York City.
