EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the Great Imperial Palace in Peking, China. Taken on October 29,1860, by Felice Beato, an English photographer born in Italy, this albumen silver print showcases the remarkable architectural beauty of one of China's most iconic landmarks. The image transports us back to a time when Peking was still known as "Pekin" and British photographer Henry Hering collaborated with Beato to immortalize this majestic structure. The intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship of the palace are evident in every corner of the photograph. As we gaze at this historical masterpiece, we can't help but marvel at its sheer size and opulence. The imposing walls adorned with ornate decorations reflect centuries-old Chinese traditions and imperial power. The roofs' elegant curves seem to reach for the heavens while showcasing vibrant colors that symbolize prosperity and good fortune. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate not only Beato's exceptional talent but also offers a glimpse into China's rich cultural heritage during a significant period in history. It serves as a reminder of how photography has preserved moments frozen in time for future generations to admire and learn from.
