EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Heilige Familie" by Charles Von Bouell captures the essence of a Swiss family in the 19th century. The photograph was taken in Basel, Switzerland, in 1861 and is preserved as a salted paper print measuring 33.7 x 22.3 cm (13 1/4 x 8 3/4 in. ). The image portrays an intimate scene of the Holy Family, reminiscent of religious paintings from the Renaissance era. The composition exudes serenity and tenderness as Mary cradles baby Jesus while Joseph stands protectively beside them. Von Bouell's attention to detail is evident in this masterpiece; every fold of fabric and expression on each face tells a story. The soft lighting enhances their features, creating a sense of divine radiance that emanates from within. This particular print from the Liszt Collection showcases not only Von Bouell's artistic talent but also serves as a historical document capturing life during this period. It offers us a glimpse into the lives and beliefs of people living in Switzerland at that time. While we may never know who these individuals were or what their daily lives entailed, this photograph allows us to connect with them on an emotional level. It reminds us of our shared humanity across time and space, transcending any commercial use or context associated with it. In its simplicity and beauty, this print invites contemplation and reflection on faith, family bonds, and the enduring power of art to bridge gaps
