EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Close No 46 Saltmarket" by Thomas Annan showcases the raw beauty of Glasgow, Scotland in the late 19th century. The image, captured between 1868 and 1871 using a negative, was later printed in 1877 as a stunning carbon print measuring approximately 26.9 by 23 cm. Annan, a Scottish photographer born in 1829 and passing away in 1887, had an exceptional talent for capturing the essence of urban life during this period. In this particular photograph, he focuses on one of Glasgow's narrow alleyways known as "closes" which were lined with tenement buildings. The scene is filled with intriguing details that transport us back to another era. The worn cobblestone street leads our gaze into the depths of the close while sunlight streams through gaps between buildings above. We can almost feel ourselves walking down this historic path, imagining what stories lie behind each door. The composition exudes a sense of mystery and intrigue; it invites us to explore further into the heart of old Glasgow. Annan's mastery lies not only in his technical skill but also his ability to capture emotion within his subjects - even when those subjects are architectural structures. This remarkable piece from Liszt Collection serves as both a visual time capsule and a testament to Annan's artistic vision. It reminds us that photography has always been more than just capturing images; it is about preserving moments frozen in time for future generations to appreciate and learn
