EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Flat-Iron" by Alvin Langdon Coburn showcases the artist's exceptional talent and unique perspective. Born in America but later becoming a British citizen, Coburn was renowned for his innovative approach to photography during the early 20th century. Taken in London, England in 1909, this particular image is a photogravure print from 1910, measuring approximately 19.8 x 14.3 cm (7 13/16 x 5 5/8 in. ). The composition captures the essence of urban life at that time with its depiction of a bustling city street corner dominated by an imposing flat-iron building. Coburn's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and drama to the scene, while his attention to detail brings every element to life. The architectural lines are sharp and precise, contrasting against the fluidity of human figures passing by. The choice of photogravure as the printing technique further enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of this artwork. It lends a softness and richness to the tones, emphasizing Coburn's artistic vision. This print from Liszt Collection offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both Coburn's technical skill as well as his ability to capture moments frozen in time. It serves as a testament not only to his mastery behind the camera but also his keen eye for capturing beauty within everyday surroundings.
