EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to the enchanting Hotel Mammoth Grove, circa 1872. The image, printed around 1876 using the albumen silver print technique, showcases the remarkable craftsmanship of Carleton E. Watkins, a renowned American photographer from the late 19th century. The photograph transports us to Mammoth Grove, California—a place where nature's grandeur meets human ingenuity. The hotel stands proudly amidst towering trees and lush vegetation, its architectural elegance harmonizing with the surrounding landscape. As we gaze at this historical gem frozen in time, we can almost feel ourselves stepping into an era long gone. Watkins' mastery is evident in every detail captured by his lens: from the intricate textures of the building's facade to the play of light and shadow on its surfaces. Through this glass negative turned into a mesmerizing print, he immortalizes not only a physical structure but also an atmosphere—an essence that speaks volumes about life during that period. As we admire this piece of artistry and history combined, let us appreciate how photography allows us to transcend time and space. It enables us to witness moments that would otherwise be lost forever—moments like those spent at Hotel Mammoth Grove over a century ago.
