Lynn Davis — Iceberg, II, Disko Bay, Greenland
Lynn Davis

Iceberg, II, Disko Bay, Greenland

A monumental iceberg rises from the dark, still waters of Disko Bay, its massive form rendered in striking tonal contrasts through Lynn Davis's masterful use of gelatin silver photography. The image captures the iceberg's sculptural, otherworldly presence, emphasizing its sheer scale and the quiet, sublime power of the Arctic landscape. Davis's black-and-white treatment strips away color to reveal the raw, timeless beauty of this ancient frozen structure against a brooding sky.

Medium
Gelatin silver print.
