Moscow, the Kremlin in the Distance 1852

Roger Fenton's "Moscow, the Kremlin in the Distance" (1852) is a masterful example of early photographic landscape. The image captures the city of Moscow from a high vantage point, with the Kremlin, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, prominently featured in the background. The composition utilizes a deep perspective, showcasing the city's expanse with a winding river in the foreground, and a delicate balance of light and shadow. This photograph is one of Fenton's most notable works and showcases the beauty and historical significance of Moscow.
