EDITORS COMMENTS
"Title: Strange Incense by Reginald Higgins (1920s) In this evocative and enigmatic photograph by British artist Reginald Higgins, a sinister-looking faun keeps a watchful eye over a sleeping woman in a deckchair. The woman, dressed in a flowing white robe, is lost in the depths of relaxation and dreams, oblivious to the presence of the mythological creature behind her. The faun, with his horns, pointed ears, and mischievous grin, exudes an air of both seduction and danger. The scene is set against the backdrop of a lush, green garden, with the sun casting long, dappled shadows on the ground. The faun holds a cigarette in one hand and a bottle of incense in the other, the red smoke curling up towards the heavens, adding to the dreamlike atmosphere. The woman's long, flowing hair cascades over the side of the deckchair, catching the light and creating a sense of ethereal beauty. This photograph, taken in the 1920s, is a testament to Higgins' mastery of the art of photography and his ability to capture the essence of the fantastical and the erotic. The image invites the viewer to ponder the nature of dreams, seduction, and the power of the unconscious mind. The faun, with his sinister yet alluring presence, represents the unknown and the mysterious, inviting us to explore the depths of our own imaginations." Reginald Higgins was a British photographer known for his surreal and fantastical images, often featuring mythological and folkloric themes. This photograph, titled "Strange Incense," is a prime example of his unique style and vision, transporting us to a world of dreams and desires. The image is a valuable historical artifact, showcasing the beauty and allure of the past, and continues to captivate and intrigue viewers to this day.
