EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a significant moment in history - the construction of the Dutch Gap Canal in 1865. The albumen silver print, captured on a glass negative, showcases the remarkable craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this monumental feat of engineering. Measuring an impressive 164 x 225 cm, this photograph allows us to immerse ourselves in the scene. The composition is masterfully executed, with every element carefully placed to convey both the magnitude and beauty of this man-made waterway. The canal stretches out before our eyes, its calm waters reflecting the surrounding lush greenery. The names Egbert Guy Fowx and Andrew Joseph Russell are associated with this extraordinary piece of artistry. Fowx was an American photographer born in 1821 whose work has become synonymous with capturing historical moments like these. Russell, born in 1830 and passing away in 1902, also made significant contributions as a photographer during his lifetime. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at how far technology has come since then. This photograph serves as a reminder of human ingenuity and determination - showcasing our ability to shape nature for our own benefit while still preserving its inherent beauty.
