Signed in initials on board by Edward Weston, dated 1941. Rubber stamp on reverse reads "Portfolio print #10". "Edward and Charis were in Nashville from September 2 until September 8. He saved about forty negatives from the work he did while he was in Tennessee, and at least twenty-five of them were from Nashville. Most of those were of William Edmondson and his sculpture...Some see it as a representation of a naive and direct artisan discovered by Weston, unaware that in 1937 Edmondson was the first black to have a one-man show at the Museum of Modern Art." - Conger, 1632/1941. From the collection of Jack and Beverly Waltman.
