1868 Active 1860s Woman Seated
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a woman seated gracefully, her poise and elegance captured in exquisite detail. The photograph is attributed to Thomas Cummings, an American photographer active during the 1860s. Dating back to approximately 1868, this albumen silver print offers a glimpse into the past, preserving a moment frozen in time. The subject of this image exudes timeless beauty and sophistication. Her attire reflects the fashion trends of the era, with intricate lace details adorning her dress and delicate accessories accentuating her ensemble. As she sits serenely, one can't help but wonder about the stories hidden behind her enigmatic gaze. The use of albumen silver printing technique adds depth and richness to this vintage photograph. This method was widely popular during that period for its ability to produce sharp images with fine tonal gradations. While little is known about the woman depicted or her relationship with Thomas Cummings, it is evident that their collaboration resulted in a remarkable piece of artistry. This print serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece - capturing not only a specific moment but also evoking emotions that transcend time. As we admire this stunning portrait today, we are reminded of how photography has evolved over centuries while still retaining its power to captivate our imaginations and connect us with individuals who lived long before us.
