Nick Brandt, Elephant Drinking, Amboseli, 2007 Availability is subject to change without notice. relating to the Exhibit on view NOW @ STALEY-WISE (http://www.staleywise.com/current_exhibition.html) SELECTED REVIEWS & QUOTES FOR "ON THIS EARTH" “African wildlife has never looked so regal and mysterious as in Brandt’s grave photographs.

"I strive for a good balance", said Miotte, "the balance between moving form and empty space". Read more on the Website
