D. ANDERSON (1854-1938), Lake Nemi and Alban Hills, around 1880, albumen paper print Domenico Anderson (1854 Rom - 1938 ibid.): View of Lake Nemi covered with branches, leaves and reeds, Alban Hills, Vulcano Laziale, c. 1880, albumen paper print Technique: albumen paper print, mounted on Cardboard Inscription: Lower middle inscribed on the support: "In Nemi [...]". Date: c. 1880 Description: Lake Nemi, a crater lake in the Alban Hills about 30 kilometres south-east of Rome, has been a popular motif for painters travelling to Italy since the beginning of the 19th century and has also been repeatedly visited by photographers. The nature piece shows a view of the water covered by branches, grasses and leaves. The limited detail is unusual for landscape photography, which usually shows panoramas of nature. As the long exposure time means that sky phenomena or wave movements cannot be captured, the surface of the lake is smooth and the sky is cloudless. In the distance is the steep shore opposite, reflected in the water. The camera has captured a play of contrasts. While the rocks in the background appear pale, the fine, shaded leaves and grasses in the foreground stand out sharply and clearly. Their curved silhouettes are reflected in the water, making it difficult to distinguish between the reality depicted and the mirror image, but giving them added aesthetic value. A beautiful interplay of curved lines. Original photography with high sharpness of detail. An early example of travel photography. Around the middle of the 19th century, more and more tourists from bourgeois circles travelled to Italy. At that time, photographs could only be taken at great expense in terms of time and with expensive, unwieldy equipment. This made many tourists all the more grateful for the work of the professional photographer's studios on site, so that they could bring back a souvenir from their holiday home or collect them as mementos. Famous photographers such as Carlo Naya, Giorgio Sommer and the Alinari brothers photographed the most famous sights in their home cities and travelled themselves to photograph their customers' favourite destinations and offer them as albumen prints. Ancient art treasures were also photographed and offered to travellers. The high-quality photographs of sculptures and frescoes continued to make an important contribution to documenting the art treasures and making them accessible to scholars from all over Europe, who previously had to rely on copies or engravings if they were unable to view the original themselves.
