About This Item
Graphic Arts Books, 1989. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good . 12x1x15. A collection of the most striking color and black and white photographs selected from the thousands of Atkeson transparencies that span six decades and all of the west. Ray Atkeson (February 1907 â 1990) was a U.S. photographer best known for his landscape images, particularly of the American West. His best known photographs are black and white prints, many still popular in galleries, stores, books, traveling art exhibitions, and screensavers. Atkeson lugged around heavy 4x5 camera equipment and photographed a rich variety of winter mountain scenery and activity. Many of his alpine photos were taken before the chairlift was invented and required ski stamina. Among his subjects were Errol Flynn, Yosemite, and many of the Oregon and Washington Cascade mountains. Alan Engen called Atkeson "the finest ski photographer ever." His awards include: Distinguished Citizen of Oregon, Honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts from Linfield College, Distinguished Service Award, Oregon Governor's Art Award, Oregon state Photographer Laureate (1987â1990), inducted into the Photographic Hall of Fame.
