EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Sebastopol, Crimea, in 1855. Taken by renowned English photographer Roger Fenton, this salted paper print showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image measures 25.5 x 34.9 cm (10 1/16 x 13 3/4 in. ), allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the scene. Fenton's composition transports us back to a significant moment in history - the Crimean War. With Sebastopol as its backdrop, this photograph offers a glimpse into the city's pre-war state, before it became synonymous with conflict and destruction. The careful use of light and shadow adds depth and drama to the image. It is evident that Fenton meticulously chose his vantage point to capture both architectural beauty and natural surroundings harmoniously. As we study this print from the Liszt Collection, we are reminded of Fenton's pioneering role in documentary photography during a time when capturing war scenes was still relatively new territory for photographers. His work not only documented historical events but also challenged traditional notions of artistry.
