EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century chromolitho print showcases the innovative use of magnesium filaments for flash photography. The French School artist beautifully captures a moment in time, where an early photographer is seated with her camera, ready to capture a portrait. The woman's focused expression and poised stance reveal her dedication to this emerging art form. The photograph takes us back to an era when photography was still in its infancy, yet rapidly evolving. The use of magnesium filaments as a source of light revolutionized flash photography, allowing photographers to capture images even in low-light conditions. This breakthrough technique brought new possibilities and creativity to the world of portraiture. Intriguingly, the backdrop reveals that this scene takes place within a sweet shop or candy store adorned with Poulain Chocolat branding. It adds an unexpected twist to the narrative, juxtaposing the worlds of art and confectionery. Perhaps it suggests that even amidst indulgence and sweetness, there is room for innovation and progress. This vintage print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into history – reminding us how far we have come in our pursuit of capturing moments through photography. As we admire this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, let us appreciate both the technical advancements made by early photographers and their ability to freeze time with their lenses.
