Margrethe Mather, a photographer from Los Angeles, came to his studio in Glendale, California called Tropico, where Weston asked her to be his studio assistant. It didn’t take long before the two developed a passionate, lustful, relationship. Both Weston and Mather became active in the growing bohemian cultural scene in the greater Los Angeles area. She was extremely outgoing and artistic in a most flamboyant way. Her bohemian sexual values were new to Weston’s conventional thinking, but Mather excited him and presented him with a new outlook that he found enticing. Mather was beautiful, and being bisexual and having been a high-class prostitute, was delightfully worldly. Mather's uninhibited lifestyle became irresistible to Weston and her photography took him into a new and exciting art form. As Mather worked and overtly played with him, she presented a lifestyle that was in stark contrast to Weston’s conventional home life, and he soon came to see his wife Flora as a person with whom he had little in common.

About This Quote

In the quote you have a man who has a wife and a mistress. He has a wife who has been faithful to him for many years and a mistress who is not faithful. The wife is the person he should be with and the mistress is just a lustful wanting to have sex with someone other than their partner which is sinful. In this case, as you can tell from the quote, it seems as though this man has forgotten his wife and his mistress both as they are no longer important to him as he is now attracted to his secretary who he expects to sleep with him. He does not want his wife or mistress which leaves only one option for him, his secretary.
