EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Gervais Battery Batterie Gervais" captures the essence of a historical moment frozen in time. Taken by Jean-Charles Langlois, a renowned French photographer from 1789 to 1870, this salted paper print showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image transports us back to the year 1855 when this powerful battery was at its prime. The composition is strikingly symmetrical, with rows of cannons lined up meticulously against a backdrop of rolling hills. Each cannon stands tall and proud, ready for battle if need be. The precision in their alignment reflects the discipline and dedication of those who manned them. Langlois' use of the salted paper printing technique adds depth and texture to the image. It creates an almost ethereal quality that enhances our connection with history. The dimensions of this print measure 25.6 x 31.8 cm (10 1/16 x 12 1/2 in. ), allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail captured by Langlois' lens. As we admire this piece from the Liszt Collection, it's important to note that it should not be used for commercial purposes or associated with any specific company. Instead, let us appreciate it as an artistic representation of a significant historical event - one that pays homage to both Jean-Charles Langlois' skill as a photographer and the bravery exhibited by those who served in Gervais Battery during that era
