EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the remarkable world of early photography. In this studio shot, we are presented with an exquisite invention that revolutionized the way images were captured - a 19th-century wet-plate camera enclosed in a beautifully crafted wooden box. The lens, positioned at the front of the camera, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of its time. Surrounding this technological marvel are various chemicals meticulously arranged within their containers. These essential components played an integral role in producing stunning photographs on glass plates using the wet-plate collodion process. The combination of these objects creates an intriguing medium group that showcases both artistry and scientific precision. Against a pristine white background, every detail is highlighted with utmost clarity. The horizontal composition allows for a comprehensive side view of this historic apparatus, inviting us to explore its intricate workings and appreciate its timeless beauty. Dave King's expertly captured image captures not only the physicality but also evokes a sense of wonderment associated with this pioneering era in photography. With no people present, our focus is solely directed towards these fascinating objects themselves – relics from another time that continue to captivate our imagination today.
