Edward Weston
He has been described as one of the most innovative and influential American photographers and one of the masters of 20th century photography. During a 40-year career, Weston photographed a range of subjects, including landscapes, still life, nudes, portraits, scenes of popular taste, and parodies. He developed a distinctively American and especially California approach to modern photography because of his focus on the people and places typical of the American West.
