Edward Weston’s work contributed greatly to the evolution of photography as a modernist art form. Taken in 1930, “Pepper No. 30” shows a radical departure from the prevailing Pictorialist style to a much purer formal vision. Although Weston created several images of the subject, “Pepper No. 30” would be his most successful one. Today, “Pepper No. 30, is included in the collections of major art institutions such as the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
