... he is some wicked printer.

Yes. Yes he was!

I've never seen/noticed such a discrepancy between what was on the wall and what was in the several books with printed versions of his work. His prints were amazing in detail, range of tones. Worth seeing, for sure. Inspiring.

There is no substitute for viewing real prints by master printers. No books or reproductions are adequate substitutes. I always encourage anyone who aspires to serious printing to see as many actual prints as they can. Go to museums that have photography collections, go to shows such as this one. Travel if you have to. It's a worthwhile investment!
