Condition

This print is in generally very good to excellent condition. In raking light, various faint disturbances to the surface are visible in the upper portion of the print. None of these detract from the overall attractive appearance of the print. There is faint yellowing to the mount surrounding the image. Karen Haas's and Rebecca Senf's book, 'Ansel Adams in the Lane collects ion,' publishes the most comprehensive list to date of the studio stamps and labels Adams used throughout his career. The author's assessment of the use dates of stamp 11 on the reverse of this print is 1973 to 1977.
