EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photograph taken in 1867, we see William Gardner leading the way with Alex Gardner following closely behind. The two men stand proudly against a backdrop that lies 309 miles west of St. Louis, Missouri, USA. This remarkable albumen print was skillfully captured by Alexander Gardner, a Scottish photographer who immigrated to the United States in 1856. The image exudes an air of adventure and exploration as it transports us back to the vast landscapes of America during the 19th century. With their stoic expressions and sturdy attire, William and Alex embody the spirit of pioneers venturing into uncharted territories. This photo is not just a testament to historical documentation but also serves as a window into Victorian-era culture and style. The meticulous attention to detail showcased through albumen printing adds depth and texture to every element within the frame. As we gaze upon this retro-styled masterpiece from Arkheia's Liszt Collection, we are reminded of how far photography has come since its early days. It allows us to appreciate both the artistry involved in capturing such moments as well as our own connection to history.
