EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the essence of youth and elegance in the 1910s, as embodied by the young woman identified as Ruth Bradley. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in the early 20th century, the image showcases Ruth's confident posture and direct gaze as she stands before the camera. Dressed in a fashionable blouse and skirt, Ruth's clothing is reminiscent of the era's popular ladieswear, with a fitted top and full, flowing skirt. The high collar of her blouse and the wide-brimmed hat add to the vintage charm of the photograph. The image, which appears to have been taken in a rural or country setting, showcases the simplicity and natural beauty of the time. The glass negative process used by Genthe adds depth and texture to the image, capturing every detail of Ruth's clothing and the subtle nuances of her expression. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of classic portraiture and the power of a single still image to transport us back in time. This portrait, which is part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to any collection of American history or vintage photography. The image invites us to reflect on the fashion, culture, and social norms of the early 20th century, and to appreciate the artistry of Arnold Genthe, who captured this moment in time with such skill and sensitivity.
