EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Close No. 11 Bridgegate" by Scottish photographer Thomas Annan takes us back to the bustling streets of Glasgow, Scotland in the late 19th century. The image, captured in 1897 and printed in 1900 using the photogravure technique, measures approximately 22.1 x 17.1 cm (8 11/16 x 6 3/4 inches). In this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to a narrow close or alleyway known as Bridgegate. The worn cobblestones underfoot and the aged buildings on either side evoke a sense of history and character unique to this part of Glasgow. The composition draws our attention towards the end of the close where light spills through an open doorway, illuminating the shadows that dance along its path. It is as if we are peering into a hidden world beyond, inviting us to imagine what lies within those walls. Annan's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every corner of this photograph; from the textures on weathered facades to subtle nuances brought out by his masterful use of light and shadow. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, we can't help but be reminded of how photography has served as a powerful medium for capturing moments that would otherwise be lost forever. Through Annan's lens, we are given a glimpse into Glasgow's past - an invitation to explore its rich history and appreciate its enduring beauty.
