DESCRIPTION
Maggi Weston established the Weston Gallery in Carmel, California, in February, 1975. Born in London and raised in South Africa, Maggi met her future husband, Cole Weston, son of renowned photographer Edward Weston in Monterey, California.
It was during this time that Maggi was introduced to Ansel Adams who encouraged her to take the bold step of opening a gallery of photography in the town of Carmel-by-the-Sea.
Maggi Weston’s private collection encompasses works by nineteenth-century French and English photographers to masters of modernism including such artists as Carleton E. Watkins, Gustave Le Gray, William Henry Fox Talbot, Julia Margaret Cameron, Frederick Evans, Bill Brandt, Imogen Cunningham, Diane Arbus, Robert Mapplethorpe, Ansel Adams, Yousuf Karsh, Irving Penn, Edward Weston, Tina Modotti, Brett Weston, Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Steichen.
