1890s Gelatin Silver Posed Well Dressed Young Window Sill

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this gelatin silver print from the late 1890s, we are transported back in time to witness a well-dressed young man striking a pose on a window sill. The photograph, taken by J. Aston Briggs, showcases his artistic eye and attention to detail. The subject of the image exudes an air of sophistication and elegance with his impeccable attire. His tailored suit fits him perfectly, accentuating his youthful charm and confidence. As he perches on the window sill, one can't help but wonder what thoughts occupy his mind as he gazes out into the world beyond. Briggs' composition is masterful; capturing not only the physical presence of this dapper gentleman but also hinting at a narrative that lies beneath the surface. Is he lost in contemplation? Or perhaps waiting for someone dear to arrive? The open window behind him adds an element of mystery - inviting us to imagine what lies outside those panes. This gelatin silver print serves as a testament to both Briggs' technical skill and his ability to evoke emotion through photography. It transports us back to an era when dressing well was considered an art form itself and invites us to appreciate the timeless beauty found within this moment frozen in time. As we admire this stunning piece from Liszt Collection, let it serve as a reminder that fashion has always been intertwined with self-expression and storytelling – even over a century ago in Whitby, England where Briggs captured this enigmatic young man's essence for eternity.
