EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "[Fox], 1886" was created by the talented German photographer Ottomar Anschütz in the late 19th century. The image, captured using an albumen silver print from a glass negative, showcases Anschütz's remarkable skill in wildlife photography. In this mesmerizing composition, a fox is depicted against a rustic country backdrop. The fox's piercing gaze and graceful posture are beautifully frozen in time, allowing us to appreciate the intricate details of its fur and the intensity of its expression. Anschütz's mastery of light and shadow is evident in this photograph, as he expertly captures the play of sunlight on the fox's coat while maintaining a sense of depth and texture. The monochromatic palette adds to the timeless quality of this piece, transporting viewers back to an era when photography was still emerging as an art form. Preserved within the prestigious collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this artwork serves as a testament to both Anschütz's artistic vision and his contribution to photographic history. It offers us a glimpse into nature's beauty through his lens, reminding us that even ordinary creatures like foxes possess their own unique charm worth capturing for posterity. As we admire this exquisite print by Ottomar Anschütz, we are reminded of our shared responsibility to protect and cherish our natural world – ensuring that future generations can continue to marvel at its wonders just as we do today.
