EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to City Point, Virginia, during the year 1864. The image showcases the majestic James River flowing peacefully through this historic city. Measuring an impressive 122 x 227 cm, this albumen silver print captures every detail with remarkable clarity and precision. The photographer behind this masterpiece is none other than Andrew Joseph Russell, an American artist who lived from 1830 to 1902. Known for his exceptional talent in capturing landscapes and architectural wonders of his era, Russell has left a lasting legacy through his photographs. In this particular photograph, he skillfully frames the serene beauty of City Point against the backdrop of the mighty James River. The glass negative used for printing adds a unique touch to the image's texture and depth. As we gaze upon this artwork, our minds wander back to a time when life was simpler yet filled with profound historical significance. We can almost imagine ourselves standing on that very spot where Russell once stood over a century ago. Let us appreciate not only the artistic value but also the historical importance of preserving such images as they offer glimpses into our past. This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come while honoring those who came before us – their lives forever etched in silver and glass negatives like these.
