EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Princeton East" by Carleton Watkins showcases the remarkable talent of this American photographer. Created in 1860, the image is a salted paper print measuring 31.3 x 41.4 cm (12 5/16 x 16 5/16 in. ). Watkins expertly captures the essence of Princeton's eastern landscape, transporting viewers to a serene and picturesque setting. The composition is masterfully framed, drawing attention to the natural beauty that surrounds us. The use of salted paper as a printing technique adds depth and texture to the photograph, enhancing its visual appeal. This traditional method was popular during the mid-19th century and allowed photographers like Watkins to create stunning black-and-white prints with exquisite tonal range. Carleton Watkins' contribution to American photography cannot be overstated. His meticulous attention to detail and ability to capture nature's grandeur earned him recognition as one of the pioneers of landscape photography. This particular piece from his collection exemplifies his artistic vision and technical skill.
