EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the 1870s, capturing a heartwarming family scene in the humble yard of a house in Lowell, Massachusetts. The photographer, Simon Towle, an American artist active in Lowell during this period, skillfully composed this albumen silver print to evoke a sense of nostalgia and simplicity. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a close-knit family gathered together outside their modest home. The composition is filled with genuine warmth and love as each member interacts with one another. Children play joyfully on the grass while their parents observe them affectionately. A gentle breeze rustles through the trees surrounding the yard, adding an ethereal quality to the image. Towle's attention to detail is evident throughout; every element seems carefully chosen to convey both intimacy and resilience within this working-class household. From the worn wooden fence that encloses their property to the laundry hanging on lines nearby, these small details paint a vivid picture of everyday life at that time. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history captured by Simon Towle's lens over a century ago, it serves as a poignant reminder of simpler times and cherished moments shared among loved ones.
