The photographs of Ansel Adams are among America's finest cultural treasures, and form the foundation of his tremendous legacy of environmental activism. One of the most influential artists of the 20th century, today his vision is as relevant and convincing as ever.
More than 45 years ago, Ansel Adams selected Little, Brown and Company as the sole authorized publisher of his photography. At the same time, he established The Ansel Adams Publishing Rights Trust in order to ensure the continuity and protection of his legacy—both artistic and environmental. As Adams himself wrote, “Perhaps the most important characteristic of my work is what may be called print quality. It is very important that the reproductions be as good as you can possible get them.” The authorized books, calendars, and posters published by Little, Brown have been rigorously supervised by the Trust to make certain that Adams’ exacting quality standards are maintained.
Only such works published by Little, Brown and Company may be considered authentic representations of the genius of Ansel Adams.

Ansel Adams (1902-1984) was the most honored American photographer of the twentieth century. Through the exhibition of his work, his writings, and his leadership in the Sierra Club, he was also a prescient and highly effective voice in the fight to preserve America's remaining wilderness.
