Betty, Miss: A Timeless Portrait from the 1910s by Arnold Genthe This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic beauty of a young woman named Betty, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on September 27, 1917. The image, a full-length glass negative, showcases Betty in an elegant evening dress, her arms gracefully folded and her head slightly tilted, as she gazes away from the camera. The intricate details of her dress, with its delicate lace sleeves and flowing skirt, are a testament to the fashion trends of the era. The hairstyle, with its carefully coiffed waves and intricate updo, is a reflection of the meticulous attention to detail given to personal appearance during this time. The portrait exudes an air of sophistication and poise, transporting us back to a bygone era of elegance and refinement. Arnold Genthe, a pioneering figure in American photography, captured this image as part of his extensive body of work. The portrait is now held in the prestigious Library of Congress, a testament to its historical and artistic significance. The image is a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 1910s and the enduring allure of vintage fashion.
