EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases Major E. Hutchinson, a member of the Royal Engineers (R. E), alongside renowned photographer Felice Beato. Born in Italy but English by nationality, Beato's talent for capturing moments through his lens is evident in this stunning albumen silver print. The photograph was taken during their time in India between 1858 and 1859, offering a glimpse into this fascinating period of history. The composition exudes an air of authority as Major Hutchinson stands tall and proud, dressed in his military uniform. His stern expression suggests a sense of duty and responsibility that comes with serving one's country. Beato's skillful use of lighting and contrast adds depth to the image, emphasizing the intricate details on both men's attire. The albumen silver printing technique employed here lends a timeless quality to the photograph, enhancing its historical significance. This print serves as a testament to the collaboration between two talented individuals who shared an interest in documenting significant events and places around the world. It invites viewers to reflect upon not only their artistic prowess but also on the broader context of British colonialism in India during that era. As we admire this remarkable piece from the Liszt Collection, let us appreciate how it captures a moment frozen in time – preserving history for generations to come while honoring those who played pivotal roles within it.
