Ernest Knee (1907-1982) was a gifted photographer who left a remarkable
visual record of
New Mexico in the 1930s and 1940s. Knee was Howard Hughes's personal photographer and the first cameraman to record Angel Falls, the world's highest waterfall, but the images he is most recognized for are those of the majesty of New Mexico's skies, adobe churches, villages and end- less landscapes. As Robert Ewing writes in the foreword, "....Knee left to us a visual legacy of life in New Mexico and the Southwest during an important period in American art in the 20th century" |
