EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Carleton Watkins takes us back in time to the year 1860, capturing the majestic Railroad Bridge at Cape Horn in Mariposa County. The renowned American photographer skillfully composed this image using a salted paper printing technique, resulting in a stunning visual representation of the era. The bridge itself stands tall and proud against the backdrop of rugged natural beauty. Its intricate iron structure spans across a deep canyon, showcasing both human engineering prowess and harmonious integration with nature. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost hear the distant sound of locomotives chugging along its tracks, carrying passengers and goods through this picturesque landscape. Watkins' meticulous attention to detail is evident in every inch of this print. The play of light and shadow highlights each contour and texture, revealing the artist's mastery over his craft. At 32.2 x 40.6 cm (12 11/16 x 16 inches), it invites us to immerse ourselves fully into its intricacies. This remarkable piece from Liszt Collection transports us back to an era when railroads were symbols of progress and connectivity. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and our eternal fascination with conquering new frontiers.
