EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Photographic Pictures Mr Francis Bedford Tour" takes us back to the year 1862 when British photographer Francis Bedford embarked on a remarkable journey through the East. Commissioned by command, he had the honor of accompanying His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, capturing stunning images along the way. The focus of this particular print is on Balbec in The Holy Land and Syria. With its grandeur and ancient ruins, Balbec has long been an inspiration for travelers and artists alike. Through his lens, Bedford skillfully captures the essence of this historic site. The albumen print showcases Bedford's mastery in wet collodion negative technique. The image measures 25.1 x 28.9 cm (9 7/8 x 11 3/8 in. ), while matted it expands to an impressive size of 50.8 x 61 cm (20 x 24 in. ). This enlargement allows viewers to immerse themselves fully into every intricate detail captured by Bedford's camera. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are transported back to a time when travel was more arduous but also filled with wonder and discovery. It serves as a testament to both Bedford's artistic vision and technical prowess as he documents these extraordinary landscapes for generations to come. This print from the Liszt Collection offers us a glimpse into history—a visual narrative that reminds us of our shared human heritage and ignites our curiosity about distant lands explored so long ago by
