EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken by Carleton Emmons Watkins around 1865-66, transports us back to a time when untouched wilderness reigned supreme. The image showcases "The Father of the Forest" an awe-inspiring tree with a staggering circumference of 112 feet, located in Calaveras Grove within Yosemite National Park. Watkins' expert use of albumen silver print from a glass negative captures every intricate detail, allowing viewers to marvel at the sheer magnitude and beauty of this ancient giant. Standing tall amidst rocky terrain and surrounded by other majestic trees, it serves as a testament to nature's resilience and enduring power. The sepia tones add an air of nostalgia, transporting us back to the Victorian era when such natural wonders were being discovered and celebrated. This photograph not only documents a specific location but also represents the spirit of exploration that characterized America during this period. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, we are reminded of our connection to the land and its rich history. It is through photographs like these that we can appreciate both the grandeur and fragility of our natural world. Carleton Emmons Watkins has left behind an enduring legacy through his ability to capture moments that inspire wonderment and reverence for our environment.
