Here are these three portraits of lovers and a young woman, made by Georg Gerlach & Co. There’s something haunting about these old photographs, isn’t there? They capture moments frozen in time. The way they’re arranged, it's like flipping through someone's memories. Look at the texture of the photos, the way they seem to almost glow. You can almost feel the weight of the years. And that central portrait in red—it's like a flash of passion amidst the sepia tones of the past. It's like a window into a different world, a world filled with love, longing, and maybe a little bit of mystery. It reminds me a little of the work of Gerhard Richter, he also created these beautiful photographic paintings, that invite you to question what is shown, and what is hidden. In the end, art is a conversation.
