EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to the late 19th century. The image features a well-dressed young boy standing proudly, his hand delicately holding a derby hat. This timeless portrait was captured by S. B. Howard, an American photographer known for his work in Pottsville and Reading, Pennsylvania during the 1860s. The young boy exudes confidence and sophistication beyond his years as he stands tall with impeccable posture. His attire speaks volumes about the era's fashion sensibilities - a testament to the attention given to even the youngest members of society. The albumen silver print technique used adds depth and richness to every detail of this remarkable photograph. From the intricate patterns on his suit jacket to the subtle texture of his derby hat, each element is brought to life with stunning clarity. This image serves as a window into history, allowing us to glimpse into both the fashion trends and social norms of that era. It reminds us that style has always played a role in self-expression and identity formation throughout different periods. As we admire this well-preserved piece from our past, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its ability to transport us through time - reminding us of how far we have come while honoring those who came before us.
