EDITORS COMMENTS
Skull Rock, (Granite) Sherman Station, Laramie Mountains, 1868/69. A captivating glimpse into the rugged beauty of the American West during the late 19th century. This mesmerizing albumen print, captured by renowned photographer Andrew Joseph Russell, transports us to a time when exploration and discovery were at their peak. The image showcases Skull Rock, an extraordinary rock formation nestled within the majestic Laramie Mountains in Wyoming. Its imposing presence against the backdrop of the Rocky Mountains is a testament to nature's artistry and power. The intricate details of the granite structure are beautifully rendered in black and white through Russell's expert lens. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but marvel at its unusual shape - resembling a skull emerging from the earth itself. It serves as a reminder of our connection to both history and geology; a symbol of strength amidst adversity. Russell's work not only captures breathtaking landscapes but also provides valuable insights into America's geographical features and heritage. His photographs have become iconic representations of this vast country's natural wonders. This particular print is part of his acclaimed album "Sun Pictures of Rocky Mountain Scenery" published in 1870. Today it finds its home at the Art Institute Chicago where it continues to inspire visitors with its timeless beauty.
