EDITORS COMMENTS
Annette Kellerman, the Australian swimming sensation and film star, is captured in this stunning silhouette as she takes a breathtaking plunge in the 1918 film, "The Daughter of the Gods." Kellerman, born in 1886, was a trailblazer in her time, known for her daring and progressive attitudes towards women's swimwear. Her decision to wear a one-piece bathing suit caused quite a scandal when she first debuted it on a Boston beach in 1907. But it was on the silver screen where Kellerman truly made her mark. In "The Daughter of the Gods," she showcases her athletic prowess and graceful form in this dramatic silhouette, as she takes a daring dive into the water. The arc of her body, framed against the dark background, creates a beautiful and timeless image. As a swimmer, Kellerman set numerous records and was a regular in the Guinness Book of World Records. As an actress, she appeared in over 40 films, often playing roles that showcased her aquatic skills. And as a writer, she penned several books on swimming and health. This photograph is a testament to Kellerman's enduring legacy as a pioneering figure in both the worlds of swimming and film. Her bold and fearless spirit continues to inspire generations, and her impact on the way we view women's bodies and athleticism is still felt today.
