SIGNED BY ANSEL ADAMS

From Wikipedia: With the cooperation of Adams, in 1977 the New York Graphic Society published a facsimile edition of the original, using gravure prints rather than original photographs. It was produced in a limited edition of 950 copies, each signed by Adams. In the afterward to that edition, photographic historian Weston Naef wrote:
\"With Taos Pueblo we see a commitment to light and form as the essential building blocks of a picture. Every exposure was made in the most brilliant sunshine which in turn created deep shadows. Sunlight and shadow are at the same time the photographer’s friend and foe. Neither films nor papers can record the two extremes of bright sun and deep shadow equally well, and an unhappy tonal compromise is often the result. Rich shadow detail is here realized simultaneously with delicate highlights in a way that proves Adams’ native sense for the toughest technical problems of the medium, and how to solve them.”
Cited in both The Book of 101 Books: Seminal Photographic Books of the Twentieth Centuryand The Open Book, Taos Pueblo is a landmark photobook and is considered by many to be the greatest pictorial representation of the American West.
\"It was at Taos and Santa Fe that Ansel Adams first saw the Southwest. The time was the spring of 1927... His visit resulted in a Grabhorn Press book now of legendary rarity. It includes Ansel Adams\' photographs and Mary Austin\'s essay on Taos Pueblo. Genius has never been more happily wed. Nowhere else did she write prose of such precise and poetical authority... Their Taos Pueblo is a true and beautiful book by two consummate artists\" ( Ansel Adams: Photographs of the Southwest, 1970, p. xxv)
