EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of City Vallejo from South Vallejo, Solano County. Taken by the talented American photographer Carleton Watkins in 1870, this albumen silver print showcases the beauty of Vallejo, California during that era. The image transports us back in time to a bustling cityscape nestled within the picturesque landscapes of Solano County. The attention to detail is remarkable as every architectural element comes alive; from towering buildings to intricate street patterns, each contributing to the unique character of Vallejo. Watkins' mastery behind the lens is evident in his ability to capture both grandeur and intimacy simultaneously. The play between light and shadow adds depth and dimension to this historical photograph, allowing us a glimpse into life during those times. Vallejo's rich history as an important naval base shines through this image. It serves as a reminder of its significance not only for Solano County but also for California and the United States at large. As we admire this stunning piece from Liszt Collection, let it transport us back in time and evoke our curiosity about how life must have been like in City Vallejo over 150 years ago.
