Chris Newbert and Birgitte Wilms
The stunning beauty of the undersea world so uniquely captured by Chris Newbert and Birgitte Wilms can now grace the walls of your home, office, or private gallery, or make a treasured gift to someone special.
Meticulously printed on Fuji FA-5 Long Life continuous tone print material, each image displays the sharpness and brilliance of the original photograph with a faithfulness previously not thought possible. And the colors of your prints will remain vibrant for a lifetime, for FA-5 print paper is rated by Wilhelm Imaging Research Inc. as having the longest life of any color photographic print material. Under standard indoor lighting conditions, FA-5 can be expected to resist noticeable fading for a period of 71 years!
The images of Newbert and Wilms are considered by many experts to be the finest marine life photography in the world, achieving an artistic sophistication and mastery unequaled by others in their field. Chris was the only underwater photographer featured in Life Magazine's special edition, 150 Years of Photography, Pictures that Made a Difference, where he took his place among the historical legends of photography such as Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, Cartier-Bresson, Stieglitz and many others. Birgitte and Chris were the first and only underwater photographers to be featured in the prestigious annual Photography Yearbook. Combined, their two books have won the highest awards and honors in photography, from two Gold Medals from the Art Directors' Club of New York, to Best Book of the Year by the Printing Industries of America, to the World Grand Prize for the Best Book of Underwater Photography. A first for any coffee table book, Within a Rainbowed Sea was selected by the White House as a Presidential Gift of State.
Chris and Birgitte work hand in hand with Master Printer William Nordstrom to provide each collector with a striking original print. Their personal signature on each finished image is your assurance of authenticity and excellence.
Prints may be ordered by the page numbers from their books, or from their on-line gallery. If you are fond of an image you have seen in one of the more than 300 books and magazines in which their work has appeared, call for possible availability, or to inquire about custom requests. |
