EDITORS COMMENTS
captured by the lens of Frances S. Allen in 1892, presents a poignant image of childhood and the passage of time. The photograph, a platinum print, depicts a young boy in the United States, seated next to an ancient tombstone in a churchyard or cemetery. The black-and-white image, reminiscent of the 1890-1900 periodical illustrations, transports us to a bygone era. The boy, dressed in clothing typical of the late 19th century, appears thoughtful and introspective as he rests his hand on the moss-covered gravestone. The concept of mortality and the cycle of life are palpable in this image, as the boy's presence contrasts with the historical significance of the tombstone. The church or churchyard in the background adds to the religious and cultural context of the scene. Frances S. Allen, known as Fanny or Francess Allen, was an American photographer who captured this moment in history. Her work, part of the Library of Congress' collection, is a testament to the heritage and artistic value of the 19th century. The Old Burying Ground photograph is a poignant reminder of the human connection to our past and the enduring power of photography to capture and preserve moments in time.
