EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating albumen print by the talented photographer Carleton Emmons Watkins. This stunning image transports us back to the magnificent Yosemite Valley in the late 19th century. Watkins skillfully captures the grandeur and power of nature in this photograph. The towering Nevada Fall, standing at an impressive height of 700 feet, cascades down with tremendous force, creating a mesmerizing cataract that fills the frame. The mist rising from the waterfall adds an ethereal touch to the scene. Yosemite National Park's natural beauty is showcased through Watkins' lens, highlighting its significance as one of America's most breathtaking locations. The stereoscopic technique used in this albumen silver print brings depth and dimension to the image, immersing viewers into this awe-inspiring landscape. As we gaze upon this historic artwork today, we are reminded of Watkins' pioneering contributions to early photography and his dedication to capturing America's natural wonders. His work continues to inspire artists and photographers alike. This remarkable piece can be found at the Art Institute Chicago where it serves as a testament to both Watkins' artistic talent and Yosemite Valley's timeless allure. It stands as a reminder of our country's rich heritage and encourages us all to appreciate and protect these precious natural phenomena for generations to come.
