EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the breathtaking beauty of Derwentwater in the English Lake District, as seen from Latrigg, around the turn of the 20th century. The image, dating from approximately 1890 to 1900, is a testament to the picturesque charm of this historic region. The nineteenth century was a time when photography began to capture the public's imagination, and this coloured print, with its rich hues and intricate detail, is a prime example of the art form's ability to transport us back in time. The tranquil waters of Derwentwater, nestled at the foot of the majestic Skiddaw mountain range, have long been a source of inspiration for artists, writers, and visitors alike. In this photograph, the lake's calm surface reflects the vibrant autumnal colours of the surrounding landscape, while the distant peaks of Skiddaw stand proud against the sky. The nostalgic scene invites us to imagine the simple pleasures of a bygone era, when life moved at a slower pace and the natural world held a special allure. This photograph, with its historical significance and artistic merit, is a must-have for anyone with an interest in the Lake District or the history of photography. The intricate details and rich colours bring the past to life, allowing us to experience the beauty of this iconic landscape as it was over a century ago.
