EDITORS COMMENTS
This gelatin silver print from the Liszt Collection transports us to the Venus Capua Museum in Naples, Italy, around 1900. The photograph, taken by Underwood & Underwood, an American photography studio active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, beautifully captures the timeless allure of one of Italy's most treasured artistic masterpieces. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the stunning sculpture known as the Venus of Capua. This ancient Roman marble statue depicts a graceful female figure standing with her arms gently resting at her sides. The delicate details and elegant curves of this iconic artwork are flawlessly captured in black and white through the artistry of gelatin silver printing. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost feel ourselves being transported back in time to that hallowed museum hall in Naples. The soft lighting illuminates every contour and curve on Venus' body, creating a sense of ethereal beauty that has captivated audiences for centuries. Underwood & Underwood's skilled craftsmanship allows us to appreciate not only the exquisite artistry behind this particular sculpture but also offers a glimpse into their own talent as photographers. Through their lens, they have managed to immortalize both an extraordinary work of art and our collective fascination with classical beauty. This gelatin silver print serves as a testament to how photographs can transcend time and space by capturing moments that continue to inspire awe and wonder even after decades have passed.
