EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the remarkable Aqueduct of Justinien, located near Constantine. The talented photographer behind this masterpiece is none other than John Beasly Greene, an American artist born in France in 1832. In 1856, during his time in Egypt, Greene captured this stunning image using a Calotype negative and later developed it into a salted paper print. The aqueduct itself stands as a testament to ancient engineering marvels, with its grand arches stretching across the landscape. Its imposing presence against the backdrop of vast Egyptian terrain evokes a sense of awe and wonder. The intricate details and impeccable composition highlight Greene's keen eye for capturing architectural beauty. Measuring at 22.7 x 29.7 cm (8 15/16 x 11 11/16 inches), this print allows viewers to immerse themselves in every fine nuance of the scene. From the play of light and shadow on each stone to the sheer scale of this monumental structure, one can almost feel transported back in time. This particular photograph is not associated with any commercial use; instead, it serves as a testament to both Greene's artistic prowess and his ability to capture historical landmarks with precision and grace. It invites us all to appreciate not only the craftsmanship that went into constructing such wonders but also reminds us of our connection to history through artistry like Greene's timeless work.
