EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting aftermath of the devastating earthquake that struck San Francisco on April 18,1906. Taken by Arnold Genthe, a German-born American photographer, this image showcases the resilience and strength of a city in ruins. The scene depicts a desolate street in San Francisco, California. The once bustling urban landscape now lies in ruins as buildings crumble and debris litters the streets. Despite the destruction, there is an eerie beauty to be found amidst the chaos. The play of light and shadows creates a dramatic contrast between darkness and hope. Genthe's mastery of gelatin silver printing brings out intricate details within this historic photograph. Measuring at 19.5 x 33.4 cm (7 11/16 x 13 1/8 inches), this print transports us back to that fateful day in history when nature unleashed its fury upon one of America's most vibrant cities. As we gaze upon this image from the Liszt Collection, we are reminded not only of the tragedy that unfolded but also of humanity's ability to rebuild and persevere against all odds. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history and teaches us valuable lessons about resilience and unity.
