Two signed Artist's Proof photographs by Alaska wildlife photographer Johnny Johnson (1947–2025). "Humpback Whale", c.2004, shows the animal surfacing and exhaling near a forested shoreline. A tall, pale plume rises against the dark trees, its reflection stretching downward into the quiet water. The second work, untitled and dated c.1993, depicts a group of orcas surfacing together in calm, deep blue water. Their black dorsal fins and bright white markings stand out among the reflected shapes and small waves. Both photographs are signed and dated in the lower left corner in gold leaf ink and printed on Ilfochrome. A care guide and artist's biography are included on the reverse. Each photograph is shrink-wrapped on board, and the photograph of orcas measures approximately 16.5" x 20.5".
