EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View City looking East City Hall Portland Maine" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Portland, Maine in the 1860s. Captured by Marquis Fayette King, an American photographer renowned for his exquisite work, this albumen silver print showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. From the vantage point of City Hall, we are treated to a panoramic view of the city stretching out before us. The image transports us to a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages lined the cobblestone streets and towering buildings dominated the skyline. The architectural beauty of Portland's city hall itself is evident in its grandeur and intricate design. As our gaze extends beyond City Hall, we witness a thriving metropolis awakening with life. The photograph captures the essence of daily urban existence - people going about their business, merchants tending their shops, and pedestrians strolling along sidewalks filled with energy and purpose. The albumen silver print technique used here adds depth and richness to every element within the frame. It enhances both light and shadow, allowing us to appreciate even more fully the fine details that make up this historical scene. Marquis Fayette King's masterpiece not only serves as a visual record but also invites contemplation on how cities evolve over time while retaining their unique character. This remarkable piece from Liszt Collection offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in history through one man's lens – capturing a moment frozen forever in time.
