EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Junkyard" by Eugene Atget takes us back to the streets of Paris in 1913. Atget, a renowned French photographer who lived from 1857 to 1927, had an exceptional talent for capturing the essence of everyday life in his city. In this particular image, we are transported to a cluttered junkyard that seems frozen in time. The composition is filled with discarded objects and forgotten treasures, creating a sense of mystery and nostalgia. The play of light and shadow adds depth and texture to the scene, enhancing its allure. Atget's choice of gelatin silver chloride printing-out paper brings out the rich tones and contrasts within the photograph. This traditional technique lends an authentic vintage feel to the print, further immersing us into early 20th-century Parisian atmosphere. Measuring at approximately 22.7 x 17.8 cm (8 15/16 x 7 inches), this small yet impactful artwork invites viewers to explore every detail meticulously captured by Atget's lens. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and neglect, beauty can be found if one looks closely enough. The Liszt Collection proudly presents this remarkable piece from their archives - not for commercial use but rather as a testament to Eugene Atget's artistic genius and his ability to transform mundane subjects into timeless works of art.
