1995 / First Edition
Publisher: Aperture
West from the Columbia is a collection of photographs about the meeting of a great river and the sea. Rather than the inland scenes of suburban development and deforestation that mark much of his earlier work, Adams turns his attention to this charged space, capturing the interplay of river, sea, sky, and light through monochromatic photographs. Historically resonant, the location also evokes the westward journeys of Lewis and Clark, whose crossing at this river mouth symbolized the opening of the American West to development and change.
Condition: Hardcover. Good condition.
