EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures Lillah McCarthy, better known as Mrs. Granville Barker, in a striking pose from a photograph taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on February 26, 1915. The image shows the English actress dressed in a medieval-inspired costume, complete with a long, flowing gown and intricate detailing. The backdrop adds to the old-world charm, with its ornate, stone-like texture and hints of a castle or fortress. Mrs. Barker, who was married to the acclaimed British actor-manager Harley Granville Barker, is depicted with a hand gesture that suggests a sense of drama and storytelling, fitting for her career in the entertainment industry. The full-length shot showcases her elegant posture and the intricacies of her dress, which was a popular fashion trend during the 1910s. The photograph, which is part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich heritage of both American and British theatre and the enduring allure of medieval and Middle Ages-inspired fashion. The monochromatic palette of the image adds to its timeless quality, making it a captivating addition to any art or theatre-themed collection.
