Footnotes: Literature Conger 934 James Enyeart, Edward Weston's California Landscapes (Boston, 1984), pl. 39 Note 'In 1939, Weston decided to give five hundred of his finest prints to the Huntington Library in Pasadena. Although he emphasized the work he did on his Guggenheim grants from 1937 through 1939, for a number of reasons, he included eighteen from this series in 1936. Of the 832 Project Prints made in the fifties to represent his life's work, twenty-three were from this group. Clearly, in Weston's opinion, this series would contribute in a major way to the picture he hoped to leave of himself.'
