She has succeeded brilliantly. The concept behind the collection is that a monument is a natural or a man-made structure whose motif is ascension. The greatest landmarks by Man, as Lynn Davis sees and presents them, rival, and often surpass, those of Nature, as breathtaking as the latter can be. Her images have a global reach: Egypt, Australia, Cambodia, Burma, Thailand, Syria, Jordan, Turkey, Yemen, Lebanon, Greenland, and the United States. They include the Pyramid of Giza, Buddhist temples, the icebergs of Greenland, among other stupendous pinnacles of Nature and Man. "Davis articulates both the omnipotent forces of Nature and the most resolute building endeavors ever undertaken by Man. Davis's aesthetic is cool and refined; her sparse composition, and controlled modeling of light evoke solitude and contemplation" (Publisher's blurb) . An absolute "must-have" title for Lynn Davis collectors. This title is a contemporary art photography classic.
