Edward Weston - 1973
His journal has become a classic of photographic literature. Weston was a towering figure in twentieth-century photography, whose restless quest for beauty and the mystical presence behind it resulted in a body of work unrivaled in the medium.

He had freed his eyes of conventional expectation, and had taught them to see the statement of intent that resides in natural form."
