EDITORS COMMENTS
Carleton Emmons Watkins' Washington Column, Printed 1866 circa, is an exquisite 19th century albumen print that captures the breathtaking beauty and grandeur of the American landscape. This monochrome photograph showcases the iconic Washington Column, a natural geological formation located in the United States. The image reveals a stunning view of the column, surrounded by a lush, green forest, with trees reaching out towards the sky, their branches forming a canopy over the landscape. The water in the foreground reflects the clear blue sky, adding depth and dimension to the image. Carleton Emmons Watkins (1829-1916), a pioneering American photographer, is renowned for his large-format photographs of the American West. This photograph, taken during the 1860s, showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the raw, untouched beauty of the natural world. The Washington Column print is a testament to the power of photography as a means of preserving the heritage and history of a country. The print is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. The Washington Column, Printed 1866 circa, is a timeless piece of art that invites us to reflect on the natural wonders of the United States and the importance of preserving them for future generations.
