EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The Monsters, the Giant" takes us back to late 19th century Paris. The image is a testament to the artistry of an unknown photographer whose work has stood the test of time. In this intriguing portrait, we are confronted with a juxtaposition between humanity and monstrosity. A human figure stands tall in the center, surrounded by what can only be described as monstrous beings. Their distorted features and malformations create an eerie atmosphere that both fascinates and unsettles. The giant presence of these creatures adds another layer of intrigue to the composition. Towering over their human counterpart, they seem to command attention with their imposing stature. It is unclear whether they are allies or adversaries, leaving us to ponder their relationship within this enigmatic narrative. Leonard de Selva's masterful capture allows us a glimpse into a world long gone but forever preserved through his lens. The grainy texture and stark contrast add depth to the image, enhancing its mysterious allure. As we gaze upon this print from a private collection, we are reminded of photography's power not only as documentation but also as a medium for storytelling and evoking emotions. This photograph invites us into its realm where reality blurs with imagination, leaving room for endless interpretations and contemplation about our own perceptions of beauty and otherness in society.
