EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Mariana said I am aweary I dead" is a stunning print captured by the talented British photographer Julia Margaret Cameron in 1875. The image showcases Mariana, a woman who appears weary and burdened with life's struggles. Her melancholic expression speaks volumes about her inner turmoil. Cameron's mastery of composition shines through in this albumen silver print. The delicate play of light and shadow adds depth to Mariana's face, emphasizing the lines etched by time on her visage. The intricate details are beautifully rendered, highlighting every nuance of emotion that crosses Mariana's eyes. The title itself hints at the profound weariness that consumes Mariana's soul. It echoes Tennyson's poem "Mariana" where she utters these very words: "I am aweary, aweary; / Oh God! That I were dead!". This connection between literature and visual art adds another layer of complexity to the photograph. Taken in Freshwater on the Isle of Wight, England - Cameron’s favorite location for many of her works - this piece captures both the raw vulnerability and strength within human existence. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst despair, there is beauty to be found. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Liszt Collection, we cannot help but be drawn into Mariana’s world – feeling her weariness seep into our own souls while admiring Cameron’s ability to capture such profound emotions through
