Talk:Edward Weston

Additional detail
Kim, Gina, and Zack Weston now live in Edward's home at Wildcat Creek just south of Carmel, CA. Kim is the son of Cole and grandson of Edward. He is a superb photographer as well. Gina is his wife and Zach is their young son. https://www.kimweston.com/.

Weston use 2 cameras : a 8x10 view and Graflex 4x3. The camera on the photo seems to be the 8x10 view not the Graflex ? See here https://www.kimweston.com/edward-weston-chronology --Ericd 02:41, 27 Feb 2004 (UTC)

 * Sure they are... We need some photos here though... --Feydey 10:47, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Commons had some that I've added. Though topical, the portrait of Tina Modotti could be replaced if someone finds a better example of Weston's art. SteveHopson 21:23, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Bertha Wardell, dancer & model
A dancer, well-known then, who became a model (and briefly, a lover) to Edward Weston around 1927. As our article states, his "Dancing Nude" (1927), of Wardell kneeling, arms outspread, and her dancers legs and thighs well shown -- is one of his best-known nudes. Here's some interesting documentation, https://socalarchhistory.blogspot.com/2012/06/bertha-wardell-dances-in-silence.html -- which includes a 1950 letter from Bertha to Edward, reminiscing about their time together 23 yrs before. The article has a nice biographical sketch of Wardell, who merits a wikibio of her own, I think. --Pete Tillman (talk) 04:40, 4 March 2019 (UTC)


 * The Getty also has some Wardell/Weston nudes. The best known is this one, http://www.getty.edu/art/collection/objects/103166/edward-weston-bertha-wardell-glendale-american-1927/?dz=0.1063,0.2849,4.70 The page "dummy" is for a never-published book.
 * The photos are scaleable, if a bit soft focus. 3 more that I found, less well known.--Pete Tillman (talk) 06:57, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Proposed merge with List of photographs by Edward Weston
This list is short enough that it can be included in the main Edward Weston article. Qono (talk) 14:51, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
