Examen sans précédent et révélateur du début de carrière de l’un des photographes les plus célèbres d’Amérique Ansel Adams (1902-1984), l'un des photographes les plus influents de sa génération, est célèbre pour ses photographies dramatiques de l'ouest américain. Bien que de nombreuses images d’Adams soient maintenant emblématiques, ses premiers travaux sont restés largement inconnus. Dans cette première monographie consacrée aux débuts de la carrière d’Adams, Rebecca A. Senf affirme que ces premières photographies sont essentielles à la compréhension du développement artistique d’Adams et offrent de nouvelles perspectives sur de nombreux aspects de l’œuvre mature de l’artiste. S'appuyant sur de nombreuses recherches d'archives, Senf retrace les trois premières décennies de la pratique photographique d'Adams, à commencer par un album amateur réalisé pendant son enfance et culminant avec ses photographies des Parcs nationaux soutenues par Guggenheim des années 1940. Soulignant la persistance de l’artiste dans sa carrière et sa remarquable capacité à tirer des leçons de son expérience en matière de création d’images, ce volume magnifiquement illustré examine également l’importance de l’environnementalisme de l’artiste, notamment son implication dans le Sierra Club.
