Ansel Adam’s ‘Moonrise’ to light up Clars sale March 22
OAKLAND, Calif. – Clars Auction Gallery will present the most famous and iconic photograph by legendary photographer Ansel Adams (American, 1902-1984) titled Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico. This black-and-white photograph features the moonlit homes and cemetery of a quiet community. Perhaps the most eye-catching element of the photograph, however, is the stark contrast between the glowing moon and darkened sky—a striking visual that Adams himself was obsessed with obtaining. On Sunday, March 22, Clars will present Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico, 1941, the signed gelatin silver print (image) measuring 15½ inches high by 19¼ inches wide. This iconic work will be offered for $30,000-$50,000. Bid absentee or live online through LiveAuctioneers.
