EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sailing Match Horning 1885" by Peter Henry Emerson takes us back to a thrilling sailing competition that took place in the quaint village of Horning, England. The year was 1885, and Emerson, a British photographer born in Cuba, skillfully captured the essence of this exhilarating event. The image showcases a moment frozen in time as sailboats gracefully glide across the water's surface. The composition is masterful, with each vessel perfectly positioned against the picturesque backdrop of Horning. The play of light and shadow adds depth and drama to the scene. Emerson's use of platinum printing further enhances the timeless quality of this photograph. The rich tones and exquisite detail bring every element to life - from the billowing sails to the determined expressions on sailors' faces. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to an era when sailing matches were highly anticipated events that brought communities together. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with both nature's beauty and human achievement. The Liszt Collection has preserved this historical gem for all to appreciate its artistic merit and cultural significance. Let us cherish it as a testament to Peter Henry Emerson's talent and his ability to capture fleeting moments that continue to inspire generations.
