EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Elcantara Bridge in Constantine, Algeria. The photographer behind this remarkable piece of art is John Beasly Greene, an American-born artist who spent a significant part of his life in France. In 1856, using a Calotype negative technique and salted paper printing method, Greene captured the essence of this architectural marvel. The Elcantara Bridge stands as a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess. Its grandeur is beautifully depicted in this print, highlighting its intricate design and imposing presence against the backdrop of Constantine's landscape. With dimensions measuring 23.5 x 30.7 cm (9 1/4 x 12 1/16 inches), this photograph allows viewers to immerse themselves in the details that make this bridge truly awe-inspiring. Greene's artistic eye shines through as he masterfully captures the play between light and shadow on the bridge's structure, enhancing its beauty even further. The composition draws attention to both its architectural elements and natural surroundings, creating a harmonious blend that evokes a sense of wonder. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a visual time capsule, transporting us back to mid-19th century Algeria and offering us a glimpse into history through Greene's lens. It invites us to appreciate not only the technical skill involved but also the cultural significance of such landmarks in shaping our world today.
