Lot 4054, Auction  124, Leuzinger, Georges and Albert Frisch, Early views of Brazil and the Amazon

Early views of Brazil and the Amazon. ca. 1865. 19 albumen prints mounted to board (slightly soiled, some foxing). Each ca. 19 x 23 cm or reverse (27 x 37) cm. Most numbered, titled and signed in negative on lower margin of print.

This selection of photographs by Albert Frisch and Georges Leuzinger represents some of the earliest photographic documentation of the Amazon region. In 1867, Frisch embarked on an expedition commissioned by Leuzinger’s studio in Rio de Janeiro, capturing images of indigenous peoples, natural landscapes, and scenes spanning from Manaus to the Peruvian border. Frisch’s use of photomontage and combination printing techniques adds a distinctive artistic quality to these photographs, while also serving as rare historical records of the Amazon. – Some light fading, scuff marks and/or small tears, otherwise in good to very good condition.
