Four signed Artist's Proof photographs by Alaska wildlife photographer Johnny Johnson (1947–2025). "Steller Sea Lions", c.1991, depicts a colony resting on a steep, rocky haulout in Kenai Fjords National Park, Alaska. The sea lions cluster on dark shelves above the white surf, their tawny coats visible against the rock. "Harp Seal Pup at Sunset", c.1993, shows a pup resting among broken sea ice beneath a purple sunset sky. The low light colors the snow and the pup's soft coat pink, while its dark eye and muzzle remain sharply visible. "Mallards in the Mist", c.2004, depicts ducks lifting from the water through heavy pink mist. The birds at the front remain distinct, while those farther back fade into the haze. The fourth work, untitled and dated 2004, shows a band of mature male Dall sheep rams on a dark hillside. Their white coats and curled horns stand out against the deep shadow, with the animals facing the viewer from different points along the slope. All photographs are signed and dated in the lower left corner in gold leaf ink and printed on Ilfochrome. Care information and the artist's biography appear on the reverse of two photographs. Each photograph is shrink-wrapped on board, and "Harp Seal Pup at Sunset" measures approximately 20.5" x 16.5".
