Gezicht op het Oosterse paviljoen van de Wereldtentoonstelling van 1905 in Luik 1905

This photograph captures the Oosterse pavilion at the World Exhibition of 1905 in Liège. I imagine the photographer carefully setting up their camera, adjusting the focus to capture all the details. It’s interesting to think about what the photographer might have been thinking, aiming to capture the grandeur of the pavilion and the excitement of the Exhibition itself. I can imagine them wanting to emphasize the architectural details and the lively atmosphere. I am curious about how they used light and shadow to create depth and interest in the image. It's a beautiful composition, and it speaks to a moment of cultural exchange and curiosity. Photographers are also artists who capture moments in time and share them with the world, preserving history and culture for future generations. I wonder if they ever imagined their work would still be viewed and appreciated so many years later.
