EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to the enchanting Government House Square in Paramaribo, a city nestled in Neerlands West-Indien. The image captures a picturesque scene of rowing boats gracefully sailing on the tranquil river, surrounded by majestic palm trees and charming buildings that include an elegant church standing proudly on the quay. In the midst of this idyllic setting, we notice a Dutch flag fluttering high above, symbolizing the colonial presence in this vibrant Surinamese capital. The photograph was taken between 1860 and 1862 by jonkheer Jacob Eduard van Heemskerck van Beest, whose name is mentioned on the object itself. The composition exudes a sense of serenity and tranquility as it transports us to a time long gone. It invites us to imagine strolling along the quay, feeling the warm breeze against our skin while admiring both nature's beauty and man-made structures that blend harmoniously together. This remarkable piece serves as a visual testament to Suriname's rich history and cultural heritage under Dutch rule. Its delicate details are preserved on paper measuring 400mm in height and 523mm in width. As we gaze upon this stunning print, let us appreciate its historical significance while marveling at its timeless beauty.
