EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases Sir David Brewster's garden with the majestic West Tower of the Cathedral in the background. Taken by Dr. John Adamson, a renowned Scottish photographer, between 1843 and 1844, this image is a testament to his skill and artistry. The composition beautifully captures the tranquility of Brewster's garden, with its lush greenery and vibrant flowers. The meticulously maintained landscape provides a serene backdrop for the towering presence of the Cathedral's West Tower. Its intricate architectural details are accentuated against the clear sky, creating a striking contrast. Printed using salted paper from a Calotype negative, this technique adds depth and texture to the photograph. The delicate tones and subtle shading bring out every nuance of light and shadow in both nature and architecture. Measuring at 8.9 × 13.8 cm (3 1/2 × 5 7/16 inches), this small yet impactful print allows viewers to appreciate every intricate detail up close. It serves as a window into an era long gone but preserved through Dr. Adamson's lens.
