photography round 1 poll 11

Russian army tents at the Castle Square in Warsaw, 1861:

submitted description: a 19th century sepia photo. view of the castle square and the opening of krakowskie przedmieście street in warsaw. the wall of the royal castle on the left, sigismund's column on the right. in front of the castle there are rows of white military tents.

propaganda: despite the scary and violent reality of what the photo depicts (it was taken after the russians imposed martial law in october 1861), the photo to me is quite beautiful? the light is absolutely stunning. and the white tents look very innocent in contrast to what they mean for the people living in warsaw at that time

Krakowskie Przedmieście in Warsaw during the Corpus Christi procession, 1861:

submitted description: 19th century sepia photo. krakowskie przedmieście street in warsaw. a huge crowd of people clothed mostly in dark colors walking away from the camera in the direction of the royal castle. some of them carry umbrellas.

propaganda: honestly everyone should read up on the year 1861 in poland, it was bonkers. (wikipedia for beginners and the book "przed nocą styczniową" by barbara petrozolin-skowrońska for the advanced). or the whole 1859-62 period. there's failed politial assassinations! solidarity between different religions! more and less competent plotting! russian generals duelling stupidly! people doing really heroic things and people doing extremely stupid things, and people clowining on the oppressive government, and everything. and besides, the photos of this corpus christi procession/ political demonstration remind me of all the impressive big protests we had in poland since like 2016. i love it when people organize and mobilize against the pricks in power, and it's such a universal thing across centuries

about the artist: Karol Beyer was the very first professional photographer in warsaw. he is the author of many photos of famous people and famous events from that time. besides warsaw he also took photos of other cities in all parts of the partitioned country. during the january uprising he was arrested and deported to russia because of his role as the photographer of the 1860s protests and his links to the people who organized them.

Photographs of Warsaw in the mid-19th century by Karol Beyer, (Polish, 1818-1877):

Warsaw’s first professional photographer, founder of the 'art of professional photography' in Poland. In 1845, Karol Beyer set up the first permanent studio in Warsaw and began to practice this new profession which he saw as having both a cultural and social mission. His photographic studio was not only a workshop but also a gallery where the people of Warsaw could view the latest innovations in European photography. In the latter part of the 1850s and early 1860s, Karol Beyer was Poland’s finest photographer – renowned not just in the capital city of Warsaw but throughout the Kingdom of Poland.

During the period 1857–1867, Beyer’s studio was located on the corner of Karowa Street and Krakowskie Przedmieście, very close to today's seat of the History Meeting House. It was here that the artist documented the lively street scenes, the patriotic demonstrations and the Tsar’s repressions. [source]
