EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Old Mill, Charenton" by Eugene Atget takes us back in time to the serene countryside of Charenton, France. The image was captured in 1915 using the albumen silver print technique, which adds a touch of vintage charm to this already nostalgic scene. The photograph transports us to a simpler era, where life revolved around the rhythmic motions of an old mill. Its weathered wooden structure stands proudly against the backdrop of lush greenery and a calm river flowing gently beside it. The play of light and shadow adds depth and texture to every detail, showcasing Atget's mastery in capturing both beauty and history. Eugene Atget, a renowned French photographer from the late 19th century until his death in 1927, had an exceptional ability to immortalize everyday scenes with remarkable precision. His works often focused on preserving vanishing landscapes or documenting architectural heritage before modernization took over. In this particular piece, Atget invites us into his world as he explores the rustic charm that lies within rural communities like Charenton. Through his lens, we can almost hear the creaking sound of the mill's wheel turning or imagine ourselves strolling along its worn-out path. This print from Liszt Collection is not just a mere depiction; it is an invitation to step back in time and appreciate the simple beauty that once graced our surroundings. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there will always be
