EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic beauty of Sentinel Rock in Yosemite National Park, dating back to around 1872. The photograph, attributed to Carleton E. Watkins, showcases the remarkable talent and artistry of this renowned American photographer from the 19th century. In this black and white albumen silver print, Sentinel Rock stands tall amidst a breathtaking landscape. The rocky formation dominates the scene with its sheer size and grandeur, while trees dotting the surrounding woodland add a touch of serenity to the composition. A tranquil stream meanders through the foreground, reflecting nature's harmonious balance. The sepia tones evoke a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone by, transporting viewers back to a time when America's natural wonders were being discovered and celebrated. This image serves as a testament to our country's rich geographical heritage. Sentinel Rock is just one example of Yosemite National Park's awe-inspiring beauty that has captivated visitors for generations.
