DUNE: Edward and Brett Weston
Kalispell, Montana: Wild Horse Island Press, 2003. First Edition. Hardcover. This volume collects, for the first time, the sand dune photographs of both Edward and Brett Weston, two giant names in modern photography. Adding depth is an original essay by Brett Weston's longtime friend, traveling companion and biographer, John Charles Woods. Woods' intimate, forthcoming narrative describes what it was like to accompany the younger Weston into the dunes and what his habits and personality were like. Charis Wilson, Edward Weston's one-time wife, excerpts a passage from her acclaimed book Through Another Lens, in which she tells of a 1936 trip she and her husband made to the dunes of Oceano, California. Also included are correspondence between father and son, and excerpts from Edward Weston's daybooks. Oblong quarto: 96 pp. with more than 50 photographs. Original gray cloth-covered boards over a black cloth spine, with burgundy- and blind-stamped titles. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. Fine / Fine. Item #78652
