EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Cemetry, MESHED" takes us back in time to the 1840s-1860s. The image is an albumen silver print, possibly captured by the talented Italian photographer Luigi Pesce. Known for his exceptional eye for detail and composition, Pesce's work never fails to mesmerize. The photo depicts a cemetery scene in Meshed, Iran. The hauntingly beautiful gravestones stand tall against the backdrop of a clear sky. Each tombstone tells its own story of lives lived and lost. Time seems to have stood still here as we are transported to another era. The use of albumen silver print adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its historical significance. This traditional photographic process was popular during the mid-19th century and involved coating paper with egg whites mixed with salt before sensitizing it with silver nitrate. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from the Liszt Collection, we can't help but marvel at how photography has evolved over time while remaining a powerful medium for capturing moments frozen forever. It serves as a reminder that even in death, there is beauty worth preserving.
