EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to 1858, offering a mesmerizing glimpse into the Claustro de la Merced in Mexico City. The photographer, Desire Charnay, renowned for his exploration of ancient civilizations, skillfully captures the essence of this historic site. The image showcases the stunning architecture and intricate details of Claustro de la Merced. The grandeur of the building is accentuated by its towering columns and ornate façade. As we peer through these arches, our eyes are drawn towards the sprawling cityscape that surrounds it. Mexico City's environs come alive in this photograph as Charnay masterfully frames them against a clear blue sky. From this vantage point, we can see rooftops stretching out into the distance and bustling streets filled with life. It is a testament to both Charnay's technical prowess and his ability to capture a moment frozen in time. The albumen print adds depth and richness to every detail captured by Charnay's lens. Its warm tones evoke a sense of nostalgia while highlighting the architectural beauty that defines Claustro de la Merced. As we admire this remarkable piece from afar, it serves as a reminder of how photography has preserved history throughout centuries. This particular print allows us to step back in time and witness Mexico City's vibrant past through an artist's discerning eye - an experience that continues to captivate viewers even today.
