FINE PHOTO GALLERIES is pleased to offer an authentic vintage (NOT a modern reprint) 1949 glossy Photo Engraving by the legendary photographer Ansel Adams. Throughout his storied career Ansel Adams traveled and photographed extensively in America's National Parks which provided the sites and subjects for some of his most celebrated photographs. From the Great Smokey Mountains of the East to the rugged landscapes of the West, Adams produced a body of work that helped establish him as one of the most important figures in the the history of photography. This is a rare piece with superb engraving quality by one of the most famous photographers in history. The outstanding print quality and extraordinary detail make this vintage "Kromekote" print look very close to Adam's original glossy silver gelatin prints - certainly the closest we've ever seen in a photo-mechanical print - only under magnification does the distinctive and high quality photo-mechanical process become evident. The plate is printed on high gloss Kromekote paper - an expensive and exclusive print surface in 1949 and typically reserved for projects calling for the very highest in print quality and detail. This special paper combined with a high quality printing technique resulted in prints which are very close in look and feel to glossy silver gelatin photographs. This print has gravure like characteristics with some tonal variation of ink (accounting in part for the wide range of tonality in the print) and was printed with extremely high quality offset, the likes of which are rarely seen in offset printing. Our scans simply cannot do justice to the detail and beauty of the actual print. High quality Kromekote prints are difficult to scan accurately - scanners have trouble with the ultra fine screen pattern and glossy surface, therefor diagonal or horizontal "band lines" will appear occasionally within the scans - these digital "noise lines" are not in the actual print itself. This vintage photo engraving is guaranteed to be authentic and comes with a hand signed CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY (COA) with unique individual registered serial number from the Fine Photo Galleries Vintage Archive & Database. The watermark word "Finephoto" does not appear on the actual print. READY FOR FRAMING & DISPLAY! - The expensive and beautiful Kromekote paper/engraving process and the resulting fine prints make vintage "Kromekote" prints highly collectible and excellent vintage prints for framing. Your vintage print will arrive ready to be placed directly into a standard size frame. HOLOGRAM CERTIFIED: Each vintage artwork comes with a fully authenticated gallery certified Certificate Of Authenticity. This COA contains a unique serial number and small corresponding tamper proof hologram with matching serial number affixed to the backside of the print mount board with archival adhesive. Our exclusive authentication system and the ensuing COA/Hologram not only provides our clients with essential peace of mind but, adds value to the print in the future by providing provenance and the original gallery authenticity guarantee documents. *WE LIST DOZENS OF NEW ARRIVALS EVERY DAY!
