Lot 4016, Auction  124, Brandt, Christian Friedrich, German-Danish War

German-Danish War. 1864. Salted paper print. 17,5 x 21 cm. Mounted to original board (slightly soiled), with photographer's embossed stamp below the image on the mount.

This rare and well-preserved photograph captures a group of Prussian officers and soldiers, posing for a souvenir photo amid the destroyed trenches surrounding the village of Düppel. Similar to Roger Fenton and Matthew Brady, the photographer C.F. Brandt faced the challenge of capturing war images only after the fighting had ceased, as exposure times were still lengthy. An experienced photographer, Brandt participated in the International Photography Exhibition in Berlin in 1865, where he was awarded a medal for his exceptional landscapes. – Minimal fading in lower and side edges, light spot in upper right corner, otherwise a strong print in very good condition.

Provenance: Robert Lebeck Collection
