EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Corner Malakoff Battery. Mamelon Vert Distance" takes us back to the historic Crimean War in 1855. The image, attributed to renowned photographers James Robertson and Felice Beato, showcases their exceptional talent for capturing the essence of war-torn landscapes. The photograph depicts a corner of the formidable Malakoff Battery, a crucial fortification during the Siege of Sevastopol. Its imposing walls stand tall against the backdrop of a distant Mamelon Vert, another strategic point in this intense conflict. Measuring at 23 x 28.9 cm, this salted paper print reveals intricate details that transport viewers into the heart of battle-scarred Crimea. The composition skillfully balances light and shadow, enhancing our perception of depth and adding an air of mystery to this historical scene. James Robertson's English background shines through his masterful execution while Felice Beato's Italian heritage lends a unique perspective to their collaboration on this piece. Together they have created an enduring testament to their artistic prowess and documentation skills. As we gaze upon this remarkable work from the Liszt Collection, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance. This photograph serves as a window into a tumultuous era marked by bravery, sacrifice, and resilience - reminding us never to forget those who fought on these very grounds over a century ago.
