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

Iceberg VI, Disko Bay, Greenland

Lynn Davis's monumental photograph captures the sublime grandeur of an iceberg rising from the frigid waters of Disko Bay, Greenland, rendered in rich, velvety tones achieved through the selenium toning process. The gelatin silver print emphasizes the sculptural, almost architectural quality of the ice formation, with deep blacks and luminous highlights that convey both the iceberg's massive scale and ethereal beauty. Davis's work invites contemplation of nature's raw power and the fragile, timeless majesty of the Arctic landscape.
