EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Roman Ramparts, Arles" by Charles Nègre takes us back in time to the ancient city of Arles. The French photographer captured this mesmerizing scene in 1852 using salted paper and paper negatives, showcasing his mastery of early photographic techniques. The image transports us to the imposing Roman ramparts that once protected the city. Standing tall against a clear blue sky, these weathered stone walls tell stories of centuries past. Their intricate details and sheer magnitude are awe-inspiring, reminding us of the grandeur and strength of ancient civilizations. Charles Nègre's keen eye for composition is evident in this photograph. The way he frames the ramparts creates a sense of depth and perspective, drawing our gaze towards the distant horizon where modern life unfolds beyond these historic walls. Measuring 23 × 32.4 cm (9 1/16 × 12 3/4 inches), this print captures every nuance and texture with remarkable clarity. It invites viewers to explore its fine details, from the roughness of each stone to delicate shadows cast upon them. As we admire this work from Liszt Collection, we can't help but marvel at how photography allows us to preserve moments frozen in time. Through Negre's lens, we are transported back to an era long gone yet forever immortalized through his artistry.
