Two signed and numbered photographs by Alaska wildlife photographer Johnny Johnson (1947-2025). The first work, "Wind Dancer", is dated circa 2000 and numbered 155/950. Johnson described the scene: "On a recent trip to photograph Alaskan brown bears fishing for salmon, several mature bald eagles joined the feeding frenzy attempting to catch wounded fish or scraps the bears had left. It was blowing hard and for over an hour I was able to photograph them dancing on the wind above the stream." The second work, "King of the Loons", is dated circa 1992 and numbered 30/450. Johnson described the scene: "A yellow-billed loon in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge prepares to shift the eggs in the nest. This photo was taken at 3 a.m. in June. The yellow-billed is the largest of all loons. They nest in lakes and ponds along the Arctic Coast." Both are signed, dated, and numbered in gold leaf ink and printed on Fuji Crystal Archive Supergloss paper. The photographs are shrink-wrapped on board. The largest measures approximately 20.5" x 16.5".
