EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Willamette Falls, Oregon City" takes us back to the late 19th century in the United States. The image was captured by renowned American photographer Carleton Watkins in 1867 and later printed between 1881 and 1886 using the albumen silver process. Assisting Watkins in this endeavor was I. W. Taber, another talented American photographer of that era. The photograph showcases the majestic beauty of Willamette Falls located in Oregon City. The cascading waters create a mesmerizing spectacle as they rush down with immense force, surrounded by lush greenery and rocky cliffs. Watkins skillfully captures the sheer magnitude and power of nature through his lens. As we gaze at this historic print, we are transported to a time when technology was still evolving, yet photographers like Watkins were able to capture stunning landscapes with remarkable precision. This particular image is a testament to their artistic vision and technical expertise. The black-and-white tones add an element of timelessness to the scene, allowing us to appreciate its natural grandeur without any distractions. It serves as a reminder of our connection with nature and how it has shaped human history. This print from Liszt Collection offers us a glimpse into both the past and present simultaneously – reminding us of our roots while inspiring awe for the wonders that surround us even today.
