Entitled: Leuchtturm im Cantonfluss (Lighthouse In The Canton River) [c1891] CR Hager [RESTORED] I removed very minor spot and scratches, evened the tone of the sky, and enlarged the image. I selectively added shadow depth by darkening the interior and undersides of the larger boats, along with the shadow side of the lighthouses. This effectively boosted the contrast range on what was arguably a very flat original. I also lightened the tone of the water to provide better separation for the boats. A final sepia tone for warmth and appearance of age.
The original was found in the University of Southern California Library's Internet Mission Photography Archive:
digitallibrary.usc.edu/impa/controller/index.htm
It is listed and can be found in their search engine under image number: impa-abmpix-645
The title refers to a lighthouse (but there are actually two, one obvious in the left center, and a distant one along the right edge of the photograph) that was found in the Pearl River around the turn of the 20th century. One has to remember that during those days, there really weren't any lights at night unless one provided it, and lights on the river itself delineating hazardous landmarks probably saved many vessels from smashing themselves against the various rocks or land features that were apparent in a winding river system. This image of a permanent man made navigation aid in the Pearl River is the first one that I've ever seen for that era. If anyone has more images like this, or know of any, please provide a link.
