Angerer founded one of the first photographic studios in Vienna but previously had made some of the first photographs of Bucharest, including this example showing the Antim area of the city. The print is mounted with trimmed corners and a series of handsome black surrounds. The mount is marked 'Photographirt 1856' '; v.Ludwig Angerer' and 'Bukarest.'
  
Rural Scene
Non-matt salt print, c. 1856
9-10/10; 250 x 217 mm, mounted
$9000.

An idyllic scene of genuine familial country life which is extremely rare from the 1850s. This print was from an early collection accumulated by a German scientist in the 1850s and contained many views by distinguished European photographers. The trimmed corners, date and unusual subject matter suggest that it is possibly an Angerer view taken in Romania but this is far from certain. We have never seen this image before. The surface is very smooth, has a light sheen and is not really typical of an albumen print but experts might have different views as to the likely print process.
