EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the year 1848, capturing the essence of a bygone era. Taken by the talented duo Adamson & Hill, this calotype showcases their mastery in preserving moments for eternity. The subject of this portrait is Elizabeth Johnstone, an enchanting fisherwoman from Newhaven. In this image, Elizabeth stands tall and proud, holding a basket filled with her daily catch. Her weathered hands tell tales of hard work and resilience as she gazes confidently into the distance. The photographer's skillful use of light and shadow accentuates every line on her face, revealing both strength and vulnerability. The backdrop of Newhaven adds depth to the photograph - its rugged cliffs serving as a reminder of nature's power against which these resilient individuals make their living. This portrait encapsulates not only Elizabeth's beauty but also pays homage to all those who depend on the sea for survival. David Octavius Hill has truly captured the spirit of this remarkable woman through his lens. As we gaze upon "The Beauty of Newhaven" we are transported back in time, connecting with our shared human history and appreciating the strength found within ordinary people who lead extraordinary lives.
