Edward Weston

Edward Weston (1886-1958) was one of the legends of American photography, and one of several major figures who began working in the pictorialist mode, only to become dissatisfied and develop a more hard-edged and realist style. Weston’s subjects were mainly landscapes, nudes, and still lifes of shells or peppers, and his prints are renowned for their finely controlled and subtle tonalities.
