A Large Framed Johnny Johnson signed Artists Proof Photograph "Denali Sunset". Sight measures 17x24 and in frame 32.50x26.50. Wt. 10 pds 6 oz. Professionally framed and double matted. PROVENANCE: The estate of a Litchfield Connecticut Antique and Fine Art Dealer. Alaska nature photographer, Johnny Johnson has dedicated the past forty years of his life to capturing the essence of our vanishing natural world in the remote regions of Alaska, Antarctica & Africa. None of Johnny's art images are taken in zoos or game-farms, and none of them are computer manipulated. Johnny’s passion for nature developed very early growing up in the hill country of Austin, Texas. His love for animals led him to study wildlife management at Texas A&M University, and then in 1968, to take a job as a ranger in Denali National Park in Alaska. As a ranger, Johnny met numerous professional photographers and gradually honed his own picture-taking skills. His Denali experiences prompted a major change in 1977 when he became a full-time wildlife photographer. Since then, Johnny has worked on assignment for National Geographic and his photos have been published worldwide in magazines, calendars, and books. Included among these are Natural History, Audubon, National Wildlife, Outdoor Photographer, Time and Newsweek. He is also represented by four stock photo agencies.
