EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Carson Carleton Watkins, an American photographer from the 19th century, transports us back to the year 1860. The image is a salted paper print measuring approximately 33.7 x 41.9 cm (13 1/4 x 16 1/2 in. ), showcasing Watkins' mastery of his craft. The photograph captures a serene landscape that exudes tranquility and natural beauty. The composition is carefully framed, drawing our attention to the stunning details within the scene. With remarkable precision, Watkins has captured every nuance of light and shadow, creating a mesmerizing play between darkness and illumination. As we gaze at this artwork, we are transported into another era - a time when photography was still in its infancy but already capable of capturing breathtaking moments like this one. It serves as a reminder of both the artistic talent of photographers like Watkins and their ability to freeze fleeting moments for eternity. This particular piece from the Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate not only the technical skill involved in producing such prints but also provides insight into how landscapes were perceived during that period in American history.
