EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bloomer Cut near Auburn, 800 feet long and 63 feet high" transports us back in time to the late 1800s. Captured by renowned American photographers Alfred A. Hart and Carleton Watkins between 1866 and 1869, this albumen silver print showcases their exceptional talent for documenting the awe-inspiring landscapes of America's expanding frontier. The image depicts a colossal cut through the earth known as Bloomer Cut, located near Auburn. Stretching an impressive length of 800 feet and towering at a height of 63 feet, this monumental feat of engineering is a testament to human ambition and determination during the era of westward expansion. The composition exudes a sense of grandeur as we witness nature tamed by man-made intervention. The sheer scale of Bloomer Cut is accentuated by its surroundings - rugged cliffs frame the massive excavation site while distant mountains provide a dramatic backdrop. Hart and Watkins' meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element captured within this small but impactful mounted print measuring only 8.6 x 17.6 cm. Their mastery lies not only in capturing the physicality of Bloomer Cut but also in conveying its significance as an emblematic symbol representing progress, innovation, and manifest destiny. As we contemplate this historical artifact from our present vantage point, we are reminded that it is through such remarkable achievements that our nation has evolved into what it is today - forever shaped by pioneers like Hart and Watkins
