EDITORS COMMENTS
Agnes Repplier: A Visionary Writer's Portrait (1910) In this photograph taken in 1910 by George Grantham Bain of the renowned news service, we are treated to a glimpse into the life of Agnes Repplier, an American author and essayist. The black-and-white print presents her seated with her head slightly tilted, gazing directly at us through bespectacled eyes that exude intelligence and wit. Repplier's attire is characteristic of early 20th-century ladieswear: a high-necked blouse adorned with delicate lace trimmings, paired with a fitted skirt. Her hair is styled in an elegant updo, showcasing her refined features. The oval-shaped frame accentuates the subject's face, drawing our attention to her thoughtful expression. As one of America's most prominent writers during the early 20th century, Repplier was known for her literary prowess and insightful commentary on social issues. Her work appeared regularly in publications such as Harper's Magazine and Scribner's Monthly. This photograph serves not only as a testament to her writing talents but also as a poignant representation of women who were making significant contributions to the world of literature during this era. This portrait, taken by Bain News Service, is now part of the Library of Congress' vast collection, offering us a unique glimpse into the life and legacy of Agnes Repplier.
