New! 40th anniversary edition poster of peter ralston's pentecost
Archipelago and Island Institute have released this special 40th anniversary edition poster of Peter Ralston's iconic photograph Pentecost. This image was voted Maine's #1 Most Iconic Image of All Time by Down East Magazine. The poster is available with the artist's signature if you choose.
Pentecost is the most recognizable of the 24 highly recognizable images that comprise what Ralston calls his Master Prints series. It graced the first cover of the Island Institute’s Island Journal in 1984. He’s sold prints to collectors on every continent but Antarctica. And while Ralston treasures both the moment and the memory, he remains at a loss to explain the photo’s long and profound appeal.
