another guess

pardon my misspelling here. I, for some reason, wonder if the female might not be Freida kahlo.

Did a quick past up in this attachment, an amazing resemblence. If the
negative on the first image was printed emulsion up the hair line would
be very close. Look at the nose and mouth!

Charles, you are dreaming that book. It does not exist.

Boy That was a powerful dream The image that remains in my mind was a a golden blond attractive gal with braids or braided hair. I wonder who I have confused Weston with? Well no matter, thanks for the information.
I have enjoyed this thread on Weston!

Might have been the "Holga" pictures. Seemed very painterly to me...

Love the attachment Charles. The resemblance is amazing.

Following a suggestion from Gerhard Bock, I've sent this to Kim Weston to see if he can shed any light on it. I'll share whatever response I get.

Jon,
The name "Holga" rings a bell! Can you post more information?

Thanks!

Jon Shiu · Jan 14, 2005

Oh sorry, Holga is the name of a cheap plastic camera. Ref. is Helga series by Wyeth.

I think I am beginning to wake up from my dream!
