The Masters of American Photography pane marks the end of the Classic Collection Series that began in 1994 with the Legends of the West. Works by twenty renowned American photographers are displayed on this pane in chronological order. The selvage shows a photo taken by William Henry Jackson or by one of his assistants. These artists combined daring, craftsmanship, and creativity to enlarge our view of America and the American people.
Edward Weston (1886-1958) favored the sharp-focused realism of “straight” photography to capture sculptural forms found in nature. His stark, brilliantly printed images are considered among the finest of 20th century photography.
