There are over 2,000 great images just added to the site by this gallery.

The gallery has been in the business of buying, selling and exhibiting fine historic and contemporary photography since 1974. Beginning with the sale of three Edward Curtis prints to the Madison Art Center in that year, Andrew Smith expanded his interests in both finding important collections and masterpieces and in exhibiting an eclectic mixture of the finest regional, national and international fine art photographs. In the past 10 years the gallery has had an estimated 500,000 visitors. There are also now two locations for the gallery in the historic plaza district of Santa Fe, NM.

The gallery is known internationally for Historic and Classic Western American Photography and is a major source of collections of work by Ansel Adams, Timothy O'Sullivan, Carleton Watkins, Adam Clark Vroman, William Henry Jackson, Laura Gilpin and Edward S. Curtis.

Among the subject areas in inventory are portraiture, landscape, documentary, fashion, nudes by Flor Garduno, still life, alternative processes, New York City, the American West and the American Indian.

The Andrew Smith Gallery actively represents some of the most famous photographers, such as Paul Caponigro, Eliot Erwitt, Lee Friedlander, Annie Leibovitz, Herman Leonard and Jerry Uelsmann, to other noted regional, national and international photographers, including Christopher Burkett, Miguel Gandert, Joan Myers, Jack Spencer, Barbara Van Cleve, Jody Forster, Alan Ross and Delilah Montoya. The gallery also works with the leading Native American contemporary photographers Victor Masayesva Jr., Hulleah Tsinhnahjinnie, Larry McNeil, Shelley Niro and Zig Jackson.
