Additional Details

This early print was originally acquired directly from Brett Weston by his longtime friend, photographer Robert Byers in the 1970s. At Byers' request, the print was placed on a modern mount and then signed and dated by Weston on its new mount. This print is accompanied by a sheet of paper with title and date in Byers' hand in pencil.

The only other known print of this image is in the Whitney Museum collection and is not mounted.
