EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Moscow, the Kremlin in the Distance, 1852" takes us back to the enchanting cityscape of 19th century Moscow. Created by renowned British photographer Roger Fenton, this image showcases his remarkable talent for capturing landscapes with precision and artistry. In this particular scene, we are transported to the banks of the Moskva River where a fleet of barges gracefully glide through its tranquil waters. The iconic silhouette of the Kremlin looms majestically in the distance, its grandeur accentuated by Fenton's expert use of light and shadow. The photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Fenton's pioneering work in early photography. Known for his innovative techniques such as salted paper prints from paper negatives, Fenton played a significant role in shaping the medium during its nascent stages. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage artwork allows us to appreciate both Moscow's historical significance and Fenton's contribution to photographic history. It serves as a reminder that even amidst technological advancements, there is an enduring beauty in capturing moments through traditional methods. As we gaze upon this stunning print, we are transported back to 1852 when boats were still one of the primary modes of transportation on waterways. This timeless image invites us to reflect on how cities evolve over time while preserving their architectural gems like the Kremlin—a fortress steeped in history that continues to define Moscow's skyline today.
