EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cathedral Rocks, 2600 feet high" by Carleton Watkins takes us on a journey through time and nature's grandeur. Taken between 1865 and 1866, this albumen silver print showcases the remarkable talent of American photographer Carleton Watkins. The Cathedral Rocks stand tall at an impressive height of 2600 feet, casting their majestic shadows over the surrounding landscape. The sheer scale of these rock formations is awe-inspiring, leaving viewers in utter admiration for the wonders of our planet. Watkins' meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this photograph. From the intricate textures and patterns etched into the rocks to the subtle play of light and shadow that brings them to life, each element has been captured with precision. As we gaze upon this image from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to a time when untouched wilderness was abundant. It serves as a reminder of our responsibility to preserve such natural treasures for future generations. Carleton Watkins' work not only captures nature's beauty but also documents its historical significance. His photographs played a vital role in preserving Yosemite Valley during its early years as they influenced President Abraham Lincoln's decision to protect it as a national park. This stunning albumen silver print invites us to immerse ourselves in its timeless beauty while appreciating both Watkins' artistic vision and his contribution towards conservation efforts.
