EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to Macao, circa 1869. The image is a stunning example of an albumen silver print, created using a glass negative. Measuring at approximately 192 by 284 centimeters, this photograph showcases the remarkable talents of John Thomson, a British photographer hailing from Edinburgh, Scotland. Thomson's expertise and attention to detail are evident in this mesmerizing composition. The scene captures the essence of Macao during that era, transporting viewers to its bustling streets and vibrant atmosphere. From the intricate architecture adorning the buildings to the lively activity taking place on every corner, this snapshot offers a glimpse into daily life in one of Asia's most historic cities. The use of albumen silver print adds depth and richness to each element within the frame. This technique involves coating photographic paper with egg white (albumen) mixed with light-sensitive chemicals before exposing it to sunlight or artificial light sources. The result is an exquisite tonal range and sharpness that enhances every minute detail captured by Thomson's lens. Artokoloro has masterfully preserved this significant piece of history through their meticulous reproduction process. By making it accessible for contemporary audiences, they allow us all to appreciate Thomson's artistry while immersing ourselves in Macao's past. As we gaze upon this magnificent artwork today, we can't help but feel grateful for these visual time capsules that connect us with our ancestors' experiences and remind us how far we have
