EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the year 1886, capturing a momentous arrival of a stern-wheeler in Silver Springs, Florida. The image showcases the grandeur and elegance of this iconic vessel as it gracefully glides through the crystal-clear waters of St. Johns and Oklawaha rivers. The overnight run up from Silver Rivers must have been an enchanting journey for those fortunate enough to witness it firsthand. The albumen silver print beautifully captures every intricate detail, highlighting the craftsmanship that went into constructing such a magnificent steamboat. Measuring an impressive 413 x 513 cm (16 1/4 x 20 3/16 inches), this photograph is truly a work of art. It was taken by George Barker, an American photographer born in Canada during the mid-19th century. His keen eye for composition and technical expertise are evident in this stunning glass negative. As we gaze upon this historical piece, we can't help but be transported to a time when steamboats were at their peak popularity, serving as vital transportation links across America's waterways. This particular image serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and our eternal fascination with exploration. Whether you're an avid history enthusiast or simply appreciate fine photography, this remarkable print will undoubtedly captivate your imagination and transport you back to an era long gone but forever preserved within its frame.
