EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "High St Exeter Corner North St" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Exeter, England in the 1860s. Captured by William Spreat, a British photographer active in Exeter during that era, this albumen silver print showcases his keen eye for detail and composition. The image transports us to a specific moment on November 27,1865, where we find ourselves standing at the corner of High Street and North Street. The architecture of the buildings lining both streets is strikingly beautiful, with their intricate facades and ornate details. The hustle and bustle of daily life can be felt as people go about their business along these historic roads. The use of albumen silver printing technique adds depth and richness to the photograph's tones, enhancing its overall aesthetic appeal. This particular print from Liszt Collection provides an intimate glimpse into a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages were a common sight and gas lamps illuminated the city after dusk. While it is important not to mention commercial use or any affiliation with a company regarding this artwork, one cannot help but appreciate how this print captures not only a specific place but also serves as a visual time capsule that allows us to reflect upon our shared history.
