EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Block, Stella, Miss, 1919 Nov," was captured by the renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. The image depicts a young woman named Stella Block, standing alone at the water's edge, with her arm raised and gesturing towards the vast expanse of the sea. The scene is set at a sandy beach, with the sun casting long shadows and illuminating the sand and the woman in a soft, golden glow. The geographical feature in the background suggests a country setting, possibly in the United States, with the solar system and the vastness of the universe seemingly within reach. The photograph, a nitrate negative from the 1910s, captures Stella in a full-length portrait, dressed in elegant attire, as she engages in a performance or dance, lost in the moment and seemingly in awe of the natural beauty surrounding her. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 20th century and the enduring allure of the American experience. The Library of Congress holds this precious piece of history in its collection, a still image that continues to captivate and inspire viewers with its timeless beauty and intrigue.
