EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of British ferns, captured by the talented Anna Atkins. Born in England in 1799, Atkins was a pioneering female photographer who made significant contributions to the field of botany through her cyanotype prints. This particular piece, created in 1853, measures 25.4 × 19.4 cm (10 × 7 5/8 inches) and is a testament to Atkins' meticulous attention to detail. Using the cyanotype technique, which involves exposing objects onto light-sensitive paper treated with iron salts, Atkins expertly captures the delicate intricacies of these ferns. The rich blue hues that dominate this print lend it an ethereal quality, enhancing its visual impact. Atkins' passion for botany shines through as she meticulously arranges each fern on the paper before exposing it to sunlight. Her dedication and scientific approach make this artwork not only visually stunning but also scientifically valuable. The Liszt Collection proudly presents this remarkable print from one of Britain's most celebrated photographers. It serves as a reminder of Anna Atkins' groundbreaking work and her contribution to both art and science during a time when women faced numerous obstacles in pursuing their passions.
