EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white platinum print, titled "Afraid of Water" is a collaboration between two talented American photographers, Adolph F. Muhr and Frank A. Rinehart. Created in 1899, this photograph measures 17.9 x 23.2 cm (7 1/16 x 9 1/8 in. ) and showcases the artistic prowess of both artists. The image depicts a moment frozen in time, capturing the essence of fear and vulnerability towards water. The subject's apprehension is palpable as they stand at the edge of what appears to be a vast body of water, their gaze fixed downwards with trepidation. Muhr and Rinehart masterfully utilize light and shadow to create depth within the composition, enhancing the emotional impact conveyed by their subject's posture and expression. The use of platinum printing further adds richness to the tones captured on film. Although little is known about Adolph F. Muhr himself beyond his unfortunate death in 1913, this collaborative piece with Frank A. Rinehart serves as a testament to his talent behind the lens. Frank A. Rinehart was an accomplished photographer known for his portraits depicting Native Americans during this era; however, "Afraid of Water" demonstrates his versatility beyond that genre. This remarkable print from the Liszt Collection offers viewers an opportunity to delve into early American photography while contemplating themes such as fear, vulnerability, and our complex relationship with nature - specifically water - which holds both beauty
