EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken by Franz Antoine in the mid-19th century, showcases a remarkable group portrait of the Antoine and Housermann families. The image is an albumen silver print from a glass negative, adding to its historical significance. In this Victorian-era snapshot, we witness a beautifully composed gathering of individuals from different generations. Men and women stand side by side with their children, creating a sense of unity and familial bond. The subjects are dressed in elegant attire that reflects the fashion trends of the time. The artist skillfully captures each person's unique personality through their expressions and body language. Their faces reveal stories untold - joy, love, pride - as they pose for this timeless family portrait. Notably featured are Elise Hausermann and Mathias Hausermann alongside Marie Woss and Matthias Hausermann. These names carry with them echoes of history; they represent lives lived during an era long gone but preserved forever within this single frame. As we gaze upon this precious piece from our past at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), we can't help but feel connected to these individuals who once walked among us. This photograph serves as a testament to the power of photography in preserving memories for future generations. Through Franz Antoine's lens, we glimpse into a world where family ties were cherished above all else – where love transcended time itself.
