EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the artistic prowess of William Kennedy Bendann Brothers, a renowned American photographer duo active during the mid-19th century. Taken in 1871, this albumen silver print emanates an air of timeless elegance and historical significance. The image transports us to Baltimore, Maryland, United States, where the Bendann Brothers captured a moment frozen in time. The composition is meticulously crafted, showcasing their mastery over light and shadow. Every detail is brought to life with stunning clarity and depth. In this particular photograph, we see William Kennedy himself as the subject. His presence exudes confidence and charisma as he gazes directly into the lens. The portrait captures his essence - a man of great talent and vision. The use of albumen silver print adds a touch of nostalgia to this piece. It was a popular technique during that era which involved coating paper with egg white mixed with salt before sensitizing it with silver nitrate. This process resulted in rich tonal range and exquisite texture. As we admire this remarkable artwork today, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance. It serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship of William Kennedy Bendann Brothers while offering us a glimpse into Baltimore's past through their lens.
