THE ARTISTS

The exhibit features twin photographs of glaciers in Alaska and Switzerland. The legendary mountaineer Bradford Washburn took the original pictures in the early and mid-1900s. Writer/photographer David Arnold took the current images between 2005 and 2007, from the same aerial vantage point that Washburn first documented the beauty before him.
