EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Basket Maker, Porte d'Ivry" by renowned French photographer Eugene Atget takes us back in time to the early 20th century. The image showcases a skilled artisan at work, surrounded by an array of intricately woven baskets. Atget's keen eye for detail and composition is evident in this beautifully captured moment. The photograph was taken in 1912 but printed in the 1920s using the albumen silver process, which adds a unique vintage charm to the image. The soft tones and delicate textures enhance our connection with the past, transporting us to a different era. Atget's fascination with documenting Parisian life is well-known, and this particular piece exemplifies his dedication to capturing everyday scenes that often go unnoticed. Through his lens, he immortalizes not only the basket maker but also a glimpse into a forgotten corner of Paris history. As we gaze upon this print from Liszt Collection, we are reminded of the importance of preserving cultural heritage through art. It serves as both an aesthetic delight and a historical artifact that allows us to reflect on how craftsmanship has evolved over time. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within your personal collection, this extraordinary photograph invites you to immerse yourself in its timeless beauty and appreciate Atget's contribution to photography as an art form.
