Silver print
7.5 x 9.5 (19.1 x 24.1 cm.)
Printed and signed by Cole Weston

In the 1930s Edward Weston, who was then living in Carmel, California, directed his camera towards the undulating sand dunes with their rippling patterns of shadow and light. This work is taken from a series of Weston’s Dune studies made near Oceano, California in 1934 and 1936. These landscapes and studies of desert detritus were made with the support of a Guggenheim Fellowship. Weston’s work can be found in the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in California, the George Eastman House Collection and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona in Tucson houses a full archive of Edward Weston's work.

Art Market Data

Edward Weston Price Development
  • More About this Chart
    • The chart shows the annual average premium prices of lots sold by the artist, which are calculated by dividing the total sales volume of the premium prices of all lots sold by the number of lots sold. For 2009, the data included in the calculations is current through the 15th of June. The charts will be updated every three months.

      The data is culled from the artnet Price Database, which has collected auction sales results for over twenty years.

      Prices are stated in USD in order to facilitate comparison and analysis of the market reports. When sales took place in another currency, the conversion of that amount into USD was done on the basis of the average conversion rate applicable on the day of the sale.

      Although most auction houses these days report transactions in prices that include a buyer’s premium, some auction houses report only the hammer price. Based on an analysis of historical auction catalogs, we apply a formula to all records with hammer prices to estimate the effect of a buyer’s premium. All prices used in the charts are either reported in or equated to hammer price plus buyer’s premium.
