EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting Foret de Fontainebleau in the 1870s. Created by William Harrison, a British photographer of the 19th century, this carbon print from a glass negative captures the serene beauty of this woodland located in Ile-de-France, France. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly displays this piece as part of their heritage art collection. The image showcases a dense forest filled with towering trees adorned with moss, creating an ethereal atmosphere. The intricate details captured by Harrison's lens transport viewers to another time and place. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of nature's timeless allure. Each tree stands tall and proud amidst its surroundings, while delicate plants thrive beneath their protective canopy. The play between light and shadow adds depth to the composition, enhancing our connection with this picturesque scene. Foret de Fontainebleau has long been revered for its natural splendor and served as inspiration for countless artists throughout history. This particular photograph serves as a testament to both Harrison's skillful craftsmanship behind the camera lens and his appreciation for capturing landscapes that evoke emotions within those who view them. In preserving moments like these through photography, we are able to cherish not only the beauty found in nature but also gain insight into historical periods gone by.
