EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Tarascon, ca. 1852" was created by the talented French photographer Charles Nègre during the 19th century. The image showcases a picturesque scene of Tarascon, a charming town located in Provence, France. In this mesmerizing photograph, Negre skillfully captures the essence of Tarascon's rich heritage and medieval charm. The focal point of the picture is a magnificent stone bridge that stretches across a tranquil river. This architectural marvel stands as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of its time. Surrounding the bridge are various buildings and fortifications that add depth and character to this historical landscape. A majestic castle proudly watches over the town from atop a hill, evoking images of knights and chivalry from centuries past. Negre's masterful use of photography enhances the timeless beauty of Tarascon. The absence of color allows viewers to focus on intricate details such as textures, shadows, and lines that bring this enchanting scene to life. As an albumen silver print preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and valuable historical documentation. It transports us back in time to experience Tarascon's medieval ambiance while appreciating Negre's exceptional talent behind the lens. Through this remarkable piece of artistry by Charles Negre, we are reminded once again why photography is considered one of humanity's most powerful mediums for capturing moments frozen in time
