PORT TOWNSEND — Northwind Art has donated five framed photographs from the Curtsinger Portfolio to the Port Townsend Public Library.
The photographs will be on display art the Port Townsend Public Library, 1220 Lawrence St.
The photos are part of a set of 50 limited edition five-print portfolios that undersea photographer Bill Curtsinger exhibited at Northwind Art’s Grover Gallery last year.
The set was purchased by an anonymous donor who directed the nonprofit to donate it to the library.
“We are so grateful for this generous gift,” says Melody Sky Weaver. “These beautiful photos will hang in the library for all to enjoy!”
The gift included the five museum-quality archival prints, each of which is stamped, numbered and signed by Curtsinger and framed by Brian Goodman, as well as a copy of “Curtsinger: Reflections on the Life and Adventures of Photographer Bill Curtsinger” by Kenneth Brower.
The book has Curtsinger photographs, including the five that were donated, accompanied by a description of the pictured marine animal and its environment.
