1822 1889 Brighton Hand Colored Albumen Henry Pointer Silver
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Rinking Brighton" captures the essence of a bygone era. Taken around 1865, this hand-colored albumen silver print by Henry Pointer showcases the vibrant atmosphere of Brighton, a popular seaside resort town in England. The image transports us to a time when people sought leisure and entertainment in outdoor activities. The scene depicts individuals gracefully gliding on roller skates along a promenade, enjoying the thrill of rinking. Their elegant Victorian attire adds an air of sophistication to the lively setting. Henry Pointer, a British photographer active during the 19th century, skillfully captured this moment with his keen eye for detail and composition. His expertise is evident in the way he masterfully conveys movement and energy through frozen frames. The hand-coloring technique employed on this albumen silver print further enhances its visual appeal. Each delicate brushstroke brings life to every element within the photograph - from the vivid hues adorning clothing to subtle nuances found in architectural details. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time; experiencing firsthand the joyous spirit that permeated Brighton's streets over a century ago. It serves as both an artistic testament to Henry Pointer's talent and an evocative window into history – reminding us of how pastimes have evolved while preserving their timeless charm.
