EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases Cork Barracks and features Captain Henry Craigie Brewster, a British officer who was active in the 1840s. The image, captured around 1843, is a salted paper print derived from a Calotype negative. Measuring at approximately 11.3 x 17.6 cm (4 7/16 x 6 15/16 in. ), this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into the past. Cork Barracks stands tall as the backdrop of this photograph, exuding an air of strength and authority. Its imposing architecture hints at its significance as a military stronghold during that era. Meanwhile, Capt. Henry Craigie Brewster takes center stage in his uniform, projecting confidence and determination. Brewster's contribution to British military history cannot be understated; he dedicated himself to serving his country with unwavering loyalty for several decades until his passing in 1905. The use of salted paper printing technique adds depth and texture to this remarkable image, preserving it for generations to come. This particular print originated from a Calotype negative - an early photographic process known for its distinctive grainy quality. As we gaze upon this piece from the Liszt Collection, let us appreciate not only the technical excellence but also the historical significance it represents: an enduring testament to both Cork Barracks' grandeur and Capt. Henry Craigie Brewster's commitment to duty.
