Additional Details



In 1955, as Parkinson's disease curtailed his ability to work in the darkroom, Edward Weston carefully selected scores of negatives from which his sons and protégés, Brett and Cole, printed under his supervision. Weston referred to these works as "project prints." According to Brett's notations on mount verso this is "number 6 of an edition of 8."
