Moonlight Effect on Niagara
EDITORS COMMENTS
- a breathtakingly beautiful photograph taken in the mid-19th century. This stunning print captures the serene and mystical atmosphere of moonlit night, with ripples gently lapping against the shore of Lake Ontario at Niagara, New York. The two albumen prints mounted on studio card create an intriguing visual juxtaposition, inviting viewers to step into this tranquil scene.
As we gaze upon the arched silhouette of a rowing boat gliding effortlessly across the water's surface, our eyes are drawn to the subtle play of moonlight dancing across its wooden frame. The soft ripples and gentle lapping of waves against the shore create an almost hypnotic rhythm, as if beckoning us to join in this peaceful nocturnal adventure.
This photograph by Charles Bierstadt (1819-1903) is a testament to his skillful mastery of capturing the fleeting moments of natural beauty. The result is a timeless and evocative work that transcends its historical context, inviting modern viewers to pause and appreciate the simple yet profound joys of nature's serenity.
Gifted by Adam D. Weinberg in honor of Allison Kemmerer, this exquisite print now resides at the Addison Gallery of American Art, Phillips Academy, Andover, MA, USA - a treasured addition to their collection for generations to come.
