EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 1838 print captures the breathtaking coastal view of the town of Phera on the iconic Santorini island in Greece. Located in the southern Aegean Sea, Santorini is renowned for its unique volcanic caldera, whitewashed houses clinging to the cliffs, and the vibrant blue waters of the Aegean. This view, in particular, showcases the picturesque harbor area of Phera, with its traditional fishing boats and quaint buildings. The image was captured during a time when photography was still in its infancy, and this print represents an important historical document of the region. The photograph was taken by an unknown artist or photographer, adding to its intrigue and allure. The print's antique aesthetic, with its muted tones and delicate details, transports us back in time to the mid-19th century. The European influence is evident in the composition and the use of the wet collodion process, which was popular during this period. This print is a testament to the enduring beauty and charm of Santorini and its town of Phera. It invites us to imagine the daily life of the people who lived there over 180 years ago and to appreciate the timeless allure of this magical place. This print is a must-have for any collection of European fine art or historical photography.
