EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white albumen print, titled "View on the Merced, Yosemite Valley, Mariposa County, Cal. 1861/76" is a stunning piece of art captured by Carleton Emmons Watkins in the 19th century. The photograph showcases the breathtaking beauty of Yosemite Valley in California, USA. Watkins' mastery in stereoscopic photography is evident in this image as it transports viewers to a time long gone. The viewer can almost feel themselves standing at the edge of the Merced River, gazing upon the majestic landscape before them. The composition highlights the grandeur of nature with towering trees framing both sides of the riverbank. The tranquil waters flow gently through the valley while sunlight filters through gaps in foliage above. It's an idyllic scene that captures both serenity and awe-inspiring power. Yosemite National Park's natural wonders have been immortalized by Watkins' lens, showcasing his deep appreciation for America's geographical features. This particular print from his series "Watkins Pacific Coast" serves as a testament to his artistic vision and technical skill. Displayed proudly at the Art Institute Chicago's gallery, this historic photograph continues to captivate audiences today with its timeless beauty and remarkable attention to detail. As we gaze upon this masterful work by Carleton Emmons Watkins, we are reminded of our connection to nature and inspired to preserve these precious landscapes for future generations.
