EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Old Order New" by Peter Henry Emerson showcases the artist's unique perspective and talent. Born in Cuba to British parents, Emerson was known for his exceptional ability to capture the essence of a moment through his lens. Taken in London, England in 1886, this platinum print measures 11.9 × 23.3 cm (4 11/16 × 9 3/16 inches), making it a small yet powerful piece of art. The composition is thoughtfully crafted, with contrasting elements that symbolize the transition from old traditions to new beginnings. The image itself depicts an intriguing juxtaposition between two worlds - one representing the old order and another embodying the new. Through careful observation, viewers can discern subtle details that convey a deeper meaning about societal changes during that era. Emerson's mastery of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to this photograph, enhancing its visual impact. The platinum printing technique used further enhances the richness and tonal range of the image.
