EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of "El Capitan, Yosemite Valley" by Carleton Watkins takes us back in time to the majestic beauty of Yosemite, California. The renowned American photographer captured this stunning image around 1875, showcasing his exceptional talent and deep appreciation for nature's wonders. Watkins' mastery is evident in every detail of this albumen silver print, created using a negative from that same year. The print itself dates back to 1889 or earlier, adding an extra layer of historical significance to the artwork. Its remarkable clarity and tonal range highlight the grandeur of El Capitan, a towering granite monolith that has become an iconic symbol of Yosemite National Park. The composition transports us into the heart of Mariposa County's breathtaking landscape. As we gaze at the photograph, we can almost feel the crisp mountain air and hear the rush of waterfalls echoing through the valley. Watkins' ability to capture such raw natural beauty is truly awe-inspiring. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a reminder not only of Watkins' immense talent but also our planet's enduring splendor. It invites us to pause and appreciate both the artistic skill behind its creation and the extraordinary landscapes that continue to inspire generations.
