Portrait photographers aspire to show you both the beauty and the character of their subjects. In this portrait of Albuquerque, a beautiful and venerable city by a great river on the northern edge of a desert, acclaimed photographer Knate Myers achieves the goal of portrait photographers— he captures both the beauty and the character of his subject. Albuquerque is a city in the center of the Rio Grande Valley encompassing, and surrounded by, great physical beauty. It is also a city of contrasts. Its first inhabitants, Ancestral Puebloans, left their mark on their descendants and all those who followed. Spanish conquerors arrived and they, too, left permanent impacts on the city, as did Americans who arrived in the mid-nineteenth century. As you will see looking through the photography in this book, the result is a beautiful city with a long history, unique character, and a wealth of places waiting to be experienced.
