EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic beauty of Alice Baker, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on June 4, 1917. The young woman, dressed in a flowing bathrobe, gazes upwards with a faraway look in her eyes, exuding an air of introspection and wistfulness. The image, a testament to the 1910s fashion trend of long, flowing garments, showcases Alice's elegant and simple style. Her hair, styled in soft waves, frames her face and adds to the overall sense of timelessness. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the field of photography, captured this moment using glass negatives, a technique that allowed for exceptional clarity and detail. The image, now held in the prestigious Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to the heritage of American photography and a reminder of the enduring allure of the past. This portrait of Alice Baker, with its hauntingly beautiful composition and intriguing subject, continues to captivate viewers and inspire artists to this day.
