Weston's Westons: Portraits and Nudes

Theodore E. Stebbins Jr.

4/5 ( ratings)

In gloriously subtle and powerful tritone plates, this book examines the full range of this photographer's extraordinary figurative work: from fashionable Pictorialist studies, to innovative Modernist works, to the heroic portraits from his years in Mexico and masterful nudes which achieve a perfect balance between reality, sensuality, and formal abstraction. Also included are Weston's last works, the satirically titled Civilian Defense and My Little Gray Home in the West, which rank among the artist's most expressive photographs. A definitive study of a great American photographer. 10 1/2" x 11". 139pp.

Format: Hardcover

Publisher: Bulfinch Pr
