EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Agra Fort Across Jumna River" transports us back to April 1859 in India. Captured by the talented Felice Beato, an English photographer of Italian origin, this image showcases his remarkable ability to capture the essence and grandeur of historical landmarks. The Agra Fort stands majestically on the banks of the Jumna River, its imposing walls and intricate architecture a testament to India's rich history. The fort's red sandstone facade contrasts beautifully with the serene blue waters flowing beneath it. This composition creates a sense of harmony between man-made structures and nature's elements. Collaborating with Henry Hering, a British artist known for his detailed architectural drawings, Beato brings forth an exquisite albumen silver print that highlights every intricate detail of this iconic monument. The craftsmanship is evident in each brushstroke-like line captured on film. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness the splendor of Agra Fort as it stood over 160 years ago. It serves as a reminder not only of India's architectural brilliance but also of the skillful artistry employed by photographers like Beato during that era. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty encapsulated within one frame. It is truly a treasure worth cherishing for generations to come.
