EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The Beach at Sainte-Adresse, with the Dumont Baths" transports us back to the picturesque coastal town of Sainte-Adresse in Normandy, France. Taken in 1856-57 by renowned photographer Gustave Le Gray, this albumen print captures the essence of early photography. In this stunning image, we are drawn to the pristine shoreline and vast expanse of the sea. The Dumont Baths stand proudly against the backdrop of a charming bay resort, adding a touch of elegance to the scene. The composition beautifully showcases both natural beauty and man-made structures. Le Gray's mastery is evident in his ability to capture every intricate detail with precision. The play between light and shadow creates a sense of depth that further enhances our experience as viewers. This photograph truly exemplifies Le Gray's talent for capturing moments frozen in time. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Art Institute of Chicago's collection, we can't help but be transported back to a simpler era where seaside towns like Sainte-Adresse offered respite from bustling city life.
