Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Brett Weston: Photographs Fron Five Decades; profile by R. H. Cravens; An Aperture Monograph, Millerton NY, 1980. From the blurb Brett Weston's work and his life are singular experiences in Twentieth Century art. He is unequaled as a master of form, of bold masses of shadow and light bound up rhythmically in natural and man-made settings. He is also the first successful artistic heir in the history of photography. His father, Edward Weston, expanded the medium with the credo that - the camera should be used for the recording of life, for rendering the very substance and quintessence of the thing itself. Weston is generally acknowledged as one of the finest printers alive. In this Aperture monograph, 100 plates of Weston's pictures are reproduced virtually to facsimile quality. Among the selections from the artist's lifework are brilliant, sometimes brooding studies of ice fragments, rock details, glaciers, harbors, desert plants, dunes, seascapes, and industrial debris. This very large format book, 131 pages measuring 341mm X 295mm is in near-fine condition in a near-fine dust jacket that is now enclosed in a protective mylar wrap. This large and heavy book may require additional postage. Seller Inventory # 2456
