Photographs inspired by Schumann’s Dichterliebe (The Poet’s Love)

They are printed on watercolor paper using the salt printing process, the predominant method of the time.

These images were inspired and created to accompany a superb performance of Schumann’s classic 19th century work Dichterliebe (A Poet’s Love) as performed by the Pittsburgh Song Collaborative. The concert featured piano virtuoso and musicologist Benjamin Binder and the internationally recognized baritone Troy Cook at the Pittsburgh Opera’s Black Box Space . A haunting emotional journey, of yearning, bitterness, despair, and ultimately consolation.

Tom Persinger is an artist, photographer, writer, and the founder of F295. F295 is an international organization that believes in the value of a heterogeneous photographic approach, in which contemporary, historic, and self-made methods are employed and combined in the creation of a new “21st Century Photography.” He organizes the F295 symposium and seminar series to promote the exploration 21st Century Photography. Persinger’s photographs have been shown in numerous exhibitions and are in many private collections in the United States, Europe, and Japan.
