William Webb (American, XX). "Emil White and Friend" photograph, 1963. Title, edition number, and William Webb's intitials are handwritten in pencil below the image. A bold photograph by William "Bill" Webb, capturing Emil White gripping the thighs and presenting the buttocks of a "friend". Emil White was an artist, writer, and publisher best known for his paintings of Big Sur, California who was introduced to the beauty of California's Central Coast by his idol and friend Henry Miller. According to White's longtime friend Ephraim Doner, "While Miller, some of whose novels were once banned in the United States, was considered the grandfather of the sexual revolution, White was its most avid practitioner". Doner also claimed that White "thought of himself as one of the great lovers of women".
