EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Place Saint-Medard" captures the essence of Parisian life in the late 19th century. Taken by renowned French photographer Eugene Atget between 1898 and 1900, this albumen silver print transports us back to a time when horse-drawn carriages filled the cobblestone streets. The image showcases Place Saint-Medard, a charming square located in the heart of Paris, France. The architectural details of the surrounding buildings are beautifully preserved in this snapshot from history. From elegant balconies adorned with delicate ironwork to ornate facades displaying intricate craftsmanship, every element tells a story of a bygone era. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, we can almost hear the bustling sounds of daily life that once animated these streets. Perhaps it was here that artists found inspiration for their masterpieces or lovers strolled hand-in-hand beneath gas-lit street lamps. Eugene Atget's keen eye for detail and composition is evident in every corner of this photograph. Through his lens, he invites us to step into his world and experience the charm and allure of old Paris firsthand. This print from Liszt Collection serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical document. It allows us to appreciate not only Atget's talent but also provides insight into how our beloved City of Light has evolved over time.
