Ansel Adams and Georgia O'Keeffe first met and became friends in Taos, New Mexico, in 1929. She was already an established artist, while he was at the beginning of his career, and their friendship lasted for the rest of their lives. This publication suggests parallels in their distinctive visions of both natural and man-made environments and illustrates the artists' achievements in capturing the reality and essence of the world around them. More than 100 beautifully reproduced paintings and photographs are accompanied by critical essays on Adams and O'Keeffe and a biographical essay on the friendship between Adams, O'Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz.
