EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the rugged beauty of the rocky coastline at Aix-les-Bains, France. Taken by L. Demay, a French photographer active in the 1860s and 1870s, this albumen silver print transports us back to a time when nature's raw power was captured through the lens of early photography. The composition is breathtaking, with jagged cliffs rising dramatically from the crashing waves below. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the image, highlighting every crevice and contour of the rocks. One can almost feel the cool mist on their face as they gaze upon this scene. Aix-les-Bains itself is known for its picturesque landscapes and therapeutic thermal baths, but this photograph takes us beyond its well-known attractions. It invites us to explore a hidden side of this coastal town - one that showcases nature's unyielding force against man-made structures. The use of an albumen silver print technique further enhances the timeless quality of this image. The delicate tonal range and fine details are preserved beautifully on paper, allowing viewers to appreciate every nuance captured by Demay's skilled eye. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within a personal collection, this print serves as a reminder that even amidst our modern world, there are still places where nature reigns supreme - untamed and awe-inspiring.
