The Glassplate collections

Thius glass plate collection from circa 1880 is a breathtaking window into the past, capturing moments with an ethereal clarity that modern photography often lacks. Each plate, meticulously crafted, holds a ghostly yet vivid imprint of history—faces long gone, landscapes untouched by time, and the soft glow of natural light frozen in silver emulsion. The delicate imperfections, add to their charm, making them feel almost alive. To hold prints of such a collection is to touch history itself, a tangible reminder of photography’s artistry and the fleeting nature of time. For Sale on request.
