EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Kittiwakes Home" by Cherry Kearton takes us back to the late 19th century in England. The image, captured on a negative in 1896 and printed in 1905, showcases Kearton's exceptional talent as a photographer. The hand-colored gravure half-tone print measures 23 x 19.5 cm (9 1/16 x 7 11/16 in. ), allowing us to appreciate the intricate details of this stunning artwork. Kearton, a British artist born between the years of 1871 and 1873, had an undeniable passion for nature and wildlife. In this particular piece, he focuses his lens on a group of kittiwakes - elegant seabirds known for their graceful flight and distinctive calls. The composition transports us to their natural habitat, where they have built their nests precariously perched on rocky cliffs overlooking the sea. Kearton's mastery lies not only in capturing these beautiful creatures but also in conveying their sense of home and belonging amidst the rugged coastal landscape. Through his lens, we witness both the vulnerability and resilience of these birds as they navigate their surroundings with grace. As we admire this remarkable photograph from the Liszt Collection, let it serve as a reminder of our shared responsibility to protect and preserve our planet's diverse ecosystems - ensuring that future generations can continue to marvel at such breathtaking scenes like those immortalized by Cherry Kearton over a century ago.
