EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Lyon, ca. 1861" transports us back to the enchanting city of Lyon in the 19th century. Created by renowned photographer Edouard Baldus, this albumen silver print captures the essence of Lyon's rich heritage and picturesque landscape. The image showcases a magnificent suspension bridge that gracefully spans over the Rhone River, connecting both sides of the city. The intricate details of the bridge's architecture are beautifully highlighted in this monochromatic masterpiece. The reflection of Lyon's buildings on the calm waters adds an ethereal quality to the scene. Baldus' expertise in capturing geographical features is evident as he expertly frames Lyon within its natural surroundings. This photograph not only documents a significant structure but also serves as a testament to Baldus' skillful eye for composition. As we gaze at this historical gem from our present-day perspective, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then while appreciating how certain elements have stood the test of time. It reminds us that cities like Lyon are living entities with their own stories woven into their streets and structures. This remarkable piece now resides within The Metropolitan Museum of Art, serving as a visual gateway into Lyon's past for all who encounter it.
