EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print from the Liszt Collection showcases the remarkable talent of British photographer Nikols Henneman. Taken in 1847, during a time when photography was still in its infancy, this salted paper print is a testament to Henneman's skill and artistry. The subject of the photograph is Alarcon, whose enigmatic gaze draws you into his world. The details captured by Henneman are astonishingly clear considering the limitations of early photographic techniques. Every line on Alarcon's face tells a story, every wrinkle revealing a lifetime of experiences. Henneman's composition is masterful; he expertly frames Alarcon within the confines of the small 12.1 × 8.3 cm print size. The lighting adds depth and dimension to Alarcon's features, accentuating his strong jawline and piercing eyes. This portrait serves as a window into London society during the mid-19th century. It offers us an intimate glimpse into Alarcon's life and personality while also shedding light on Henneman's artistic vision. As we admire this historical artifact, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also its significance as a milestone in photographic history. This print stands as a testament to both Nikols Henneman's talent as well as our human desire to capture moments frozen in time through visual artistry.
