I am thrilled to announce a special 50 Years Limited Edition silver gelatin print of my image, Fern Spring, Yosemite Valley, California, which I made 50 years ago—on June 11th, 1973, while I was attending annual Ansel Adams Yosemite Workshop. This intimate size print is being offered in a limited edition of 50 (It was made 50 years ago!) signed and numbered prints, plus 5 Artist's Proofs. The print may be ordered through Saturday, June 24th, 2023 (Ansel's 1973 Workshop ended on June 24) at the very special discounted price of $300. (Tuition for Ansel's 1973 two-week Workshop was $300!) After that date, the price will increase to $750.
I made this image of Fern Spring late during the second full day of the Workshop. It is the earliest image that I still print on occasion. I was excited - and frankly very surprised - that the negative turned out as successfully as it did. I included it in my first display of photographs in the Cypress College Photography Gallery as a required part of my independent study in late 1973, and it was also on display in my first gallery exhibitions in 1974. Attending Ansel's Workshop not only changed my photography but changed my life.
This print will be mounted on 14x17" 2-ply museum board, with a discrete embossed stamp, denoting this is a silver gelatin print by John Sexton, in the lower right corner of the board. Following Ansel's workshop, I began exploring smaller size prints–even though I was working with a large format camera! I decided to make this print approximately the same size as when I first printed it. This intimate size print is approximately 5-7/8 x 7-5/8" in size, personally printed by me (as are all my prints), signed, numbered, and processed to current archival standards. Please note that this special 50 Years Limited Edition print will NOT be overmatted. The overmat, if you desire one, will be up to you.
Please note that the Ventana Editions store hosting company is experiencing technical issues.
