EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to the enchanting streets of Paris before 1900. The image captures a picturesque scene featuring the iconic Moulin Somme, a windmill that once graced the city's skyline. Renowned French photographer Eugene Atget skillfully composed this shot, showcasing his mastery of capturing the essence and charm of Parisian life. Atget's attention to detail is evident in every element of this photograph. The delicate play of light and shadow creates a mesmerizing atmosphere, while the intricate architectural details of both the mill and surrounding buildings are beautifully preserved on this albumen silver print. It is as if we can almost hear the gentle creaking sound of its wooden blades turning against the backdrop of bustling Paris. The historical significance of this image cannot be overstated. Atget was known for his dedication to documenting rapidly disappearing aspects of old Paris, making him an invaluable chronicler of urban transformation during his time. This particular photograph serves as a testament to Atget's commitment to preserving these moments for future generations. As we gaze upon this stunning piece, we are transported into another era - one filled with romance, nostalgia, and timeless beauty. It reminds us why Paris has long been hailed as one of the world's most beloved cities – its ability to capture our hearts through artistry such as Atget’s photography remains unparalleled even today.
