EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Yosemite Falls from Glacier Point, 1865-66" transports us back to the awe-inspiring beauty of America's Yosemite National Park in the late 19th century. Taken by renowned photographer Carleton Emmons Watkins around 1875, this albumen print captures the grandeur of Yosemite Falls as it cascades down from Glacier Point. The monochromatic palette adds a timeless quality to the image, emphasizing the stark contrast between the dark rocks and trees against the ethereal mist created by the waterfall. The sepia tones further enhance its vintage charm. Watkins' meticulous composition showcases nature's power and serenity simultaneously. The towering mountains frame Yosemite Valley with their majestic presence while lush forests thrive at their base.
