EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to Canton, China, during August to October 1860. The image showcases the enchanting Howqua Gardens, a serene oasis nestled amidst the bustling cityscape. Renowned photographer Felice Beato, an Englishman born in Italy, skillfully captures the essence of this picturesque location through his lens. The composition exudes tranquility and harmony as we are transported into a world where nature seamlessly blends with man-made structures. Lush greenery surrounds ornate pavilions and intricately designed bridges that span over tranquil ponds. The gardens appear meticulously maintained, reflecting Chinese gardening traditions at their finest. Beato's use of albumen silver print further enhances the visual appeal of this photograph. The delicate tonal range and exquisite detail bring every element within the frame to life - from each leaf on a tree branch to every ripple on the water's surface. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, it serves as a testament to both Beato's artistic prowess and his ability to capture moments that transcend generations. This print not only offers us a glimpse into 19th-century China but also invites contemplation on how cultures intertwine and influence one another throughout history.
