EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white albumen print, titled "[Charles Henry Bennett], 1860s" is a remarkable piece of art created by the talented duo John & Charles Watkins.

The intensity in his eyes reflects his dedication and passion for his craft. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into the world of an artist who left an indelible mark on British art history. The use of albumen silver print adds depth and richness to the monochromatic tones, enhancing every intricate feature captured by John & Charles Watkins' lens.

Preserved with utmost care at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this exceptional artwork serves as a testament to both the skillful craftsmanship of its creators and the enduring legacy left behind by Charles Henry Bennett.
