"Yosemite Valley from Inspiration Point" was taken around 1940 and is one of Adams' most famous views. The caption on the verso reads "Winter in Yosemite National Park - Yosemite Valley as viewed from the esplanade of the Wawona Tunnel, nearly five hundred feet above. El Capitan on the left, Clouds Rest and Half Dome in the distant center, and the Cathedral Rocks on the right." "Photographed in Yosemite by Ansel Adams" is stamped on the backs as well as the words "For rotogravure or lithograph." The image was "released by Yosemite Park and Curry Co. Yosemite National Park, Calif." and is in EX condition.
