Rhyolite, Nevada Ghost Town Ruins

Although not much of the town is left, Rhyolite, Nevada is a popular destination for ghost town hunters. This photograph was taken in 1971. I haven't been back since then to see how the ruins have fared. This facade is unique because of the detailed stone work. Many buildings built in the mining towns during the gold rush of the mid 1800s were made of wood and have not survived as well. Perhaps because Rhyolite is located in the desert, it's also been better preserved.

To give my photographs a quality akin to a fine oil painting, I print them on medium-weight artist quality mat canvas and ship them ready for stretching and framing. The inks used to make the print are light fast and permanent and should last for well over 100 years. I spray a protective coating over the canvas to ensure that the image will have a long lifetime. This photograph is available in other sizes and on other media to suit your individual tastes and needs by contacting me directly by emailing me.
