EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View Amsterdam Canal" transports us back to the bustling streets of 19th-century Amsterdam. Taken by A. Jager, a Danish photographer active in the city during the 1860s and 1870s, this albumen silver print showcases his keen eye for capturing urban landscapes. The image depicts a picturesque canal scene, showcasing one of Amsterdam's iconic waterways lined with charming buildings and arched bridges. The composition is beautifully balanced, with reflections shimmering on the calm waters below. It offers a glimpse into daily life in this historic city, where boats gracefully glide along the canals while pedestrians stroll leisurely along their banks. Jager's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this photograph. From the intricate architectural details of each building to the play of light and shadow across cobblestone streets, he masterfully captures Amsterdam's unique charm. This particular print was created using an albumen silver process popular during that era. This technique involved coating paper with egg white mixed with salt before sensitizing it to light through contact printing from glass negatives. As we admire this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to experience a moment frozen forever within its frame – an enchanting view of Amsterdam that continues to captivate viewers even after more than a century has passed.
