EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing portrait of Selena Frewen, captured by the talented French photographer Antoine Claudet in 1855. The image is presented as a stereograph daguerreotype, skillfully hand-colored to enhance its visual appeal. Measuring at just 6.8 x 5.7 cm (2 11/16 x 2 1/4 in. ), this small yet powerful artwork encapsulates a moment frozen in time. Selena Frewen's enigmatic gaze draws you into her world, revealing both vulnerability and strength. Her delicate features are beautifully accentuated by the expert use of color, adding depth and dimension to the photograph. Antoine Claudet's mastery behind the lens is evident as he captures not only Selena's physical beauty but also her inner essence. The choice of a stereograph daguerreotype adds an intriguing element to this piece, allowing viewers to experience a three-dimensional effect when viewed through a special viewer or with crossed eyes. This technique was revolutionary for its time and further enhances the immersive nature of this portrait. As we admire this remarkable work from the Liszt Collection, it is important to note that commercial use should not be associated with it. Instead, let us appreciate how art can transcend time and connect us with individuals who lived centuries ago – like Selena Frewen – leaving an indelible mark on our collective memory through their portraits captured by visionary photographers like Antoine Claudet.
