Oversize Hardback. Condizione: Fine. Book is in excellent condition, as new in every respect. Binding is solid and square, covers have sharp corners, exterior shows no blemishes, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. Dust jacket shows the slightest signs of shelf wear only, no tears. The Brooks Range, one of the most remote and least-disturbed wildernesses of North America, is immense and inaccessible enough to earn a nearly mythic reputation. Dennis Witmer's splendid volume, Far to the North: Photographs from the Brooks Range explores the limits of the tree line that juts through the southern edge of the range, revealing northern peaks and valleys bare of vegetation and glossed over by a softening snow that can arrive at any time of the year. A magnificent glimpse at nature in its most pristine and raw form, the epic photography featured in Far to the North will be a welcome addition to the collection of any explorer or lover of the northern landscape.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 48 pages. Published in 2005. Retrospective collection of photographs on subject. One of the most beautiful art photography books on a pristine natural landscape ever published in our time. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. A brilliant production by Dennis Witmer: Oversize-volume format. Khaki cloth boards with photographic reproduction pasted on the cover and black titles embossed on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by Dennis Witmer. Poem, "Allegiances", by William Stafford. Text Excerpt from "Why We Photograph" by Robert Adams. Printed in duotone on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper to the highest standards. The reproduction quality is outstanding in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Dennis Witmer's "Far To The North: Photographs From The Brook Range". Majestic photographs of a remote Natural Wonder that was spared the destruction and environmental calamity wrought by Man everywhere else. A student of Robert Adams (who is acknowledged in both the Epigraph and Credits), the latter's influence on his austerely beautiful imagery is unmistakable. The Athabaskan Gwazhal, as it is known to Alaskan natives, is a mountain range in North America stretching 700 miles. "One of the most remote and least-disturbed wildernesses of North America, it is immense and inaccessible enough to earn a nearly mythic reputation. Explores the limits of the tree line that juts through the southern edge of the range, revealing northern peaks and valleys bare of vegetation and glossed over by a softening snow that can arrive at any time of the year. A magnificent glimpse at Nature in its most pristine and raw form, this epic photography will be a welcome addition to the collection of any explorer or lover of the Northern landscape" (Publisher's blurb). Witmer's (and his imagery's) musical counterpart is the Alaskan composer John Luther Adams ("Become Ocean", 2014). An absolute "must-have" title for Dennis Witmer collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed and dated in black ink-pen on the half-title page by the photographer: "Dennis Witmer 1/13/2008". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and dated copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. It is the single most beautiful signed copy we have ever seen. Please note: Dennis Witmer did NOT sign most copies. Copies available online have serious flaws. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. 33 duotone plates. One of the most brilliant American photographers of our time. A fine copy.
