EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the iconic sculpture known as "Venus Arles". Created between 1870 and 1890, this albumen silver print beautifully captures the timeless elegance of this renowned artwork. The Venus of Arles, also referred to as Aphrodite of Arles, is a Roman marble statue believed to be a copy of an ancient Greek sculpture dating back to the 2nd century BC. In this image, we see Venus standing gracefully with her arms slightly raised and her head tilted in a subtle pose. Her flowing drapery accentuates her delicate features and highlights the sculptor's attention to detail. The soft lighting enhances every curve and contour, adding depth and dimension to the photograph. The choice of albumen silver printing technique further enriches this piece by lending it a warm sepia tone that evokes nostalgia for classical art forms. This method was popular during the late 19th century due to its ability to produce sharp details and tonal range. As we admire this exquisite print, we are transported back in time, experiencing both the beauty of ancient artistry and the skillful craftsmanship involved in capturing it through photography. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with beauty throughout history.
