  • Monolith, the Face of Half Dome, Yosemite National Park, California is a black and white photograph taken by Ansel Adams in 1927 that depicts the western face of Half Dome in Yosemite, California. In the foreground of the photo, viewers are able to see the texture and detail of the rock as well as the background landscape of pine trees and the Tenaya Peak. Monolith was used by the Sierra Club as a visual aid for the environmental movement, and was the first photograph Adams made that was based on feelings, a concept he would come to define as visualization and prompt him to create the Zone System. The image stands as a testament to the intense relationship Adams had with the landscape of Yosemite, as his career was largely marked by photographing the park. Monolith has also physically endured the test of time as the original glass plate negative is still intact and printable. The photograph is a part of the portfolio Parmelian Prints of the High Sierras, released in 1927. (en)
  • Monolith, the Face of Half Dome, Parque Nacional de Yosemite, Califórnia é uma foto em filme preto e branco tirada por Ansel Adams em 1927 que retrata a face oeste do Half Dome em Yosemite, Califórnia. No primeiro plano da foto, os visualizadores podem ver a textura e os detalhes da rocha, enquanto também a paisagem de fundo dos pinheiros e do Pico Tenaya. Monolith foi utilizado pelo Sierra Club como um auxílio visual para o movimento ambiental, e foi a primeira fotografia que Adams fez baseada em sentimentos, um conceito que ele viria a definir como visualização e o levaria a criar o Zone System. A imagem é um testemunho da intensa relação de Adams com a paisagem de Yosemite, já que sua carreira foi marcada principalmente por fotografar o parque. A Monolith também resistiu fisicamente ao teste do tempo, pois o negativo do filme original e a placa de vidro ainda estão intactos e podem ser impressos. (pt)
