Plate XXI, P.H. Emerson and T.F. Goodall, Life and Landscape on the Norfolk Broads, London: Sampson Low, Marston, Searle and Rivington, 1886.
Emerson's dual guiding theses, photography composed in its own pure art form and a documentary naturalism intact without alteration, combine in this deeply tonal platinum print. A vertical counterpoint to the larger whole, the rower glides through an opening created by his own shadows.
