EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on May 30, 1919, captures the elegant and timeless image of J.M. Bruce and his wife, seated side by side on horseback. The couple, dressed in fashionable clothing of the era, exude an air of sophistication and confidence as they hold the reins and gaze off into the distance. Mr. Bruce wears a pair of high-boots, commonly known as carriage boots, while his wife's dress and hat add a touch of femininity to the scene. The image was captured on a nitrate negative, a common photographic process of the time, and has since become a vintage treasure in the annals of American history. The location of the photograph is not known, but the image evokes the feeling of a leisurely ride through the countryside, a popular pastime for the wealthy and well-to-do during the early 20th century. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of horseback riding as a means of transportation and recreation, and the bond between husband and wife as they share this experience together. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the field of American photography, captured this moment in time with precision and artistry, resulting in a still image that continues to captivate viewers over 100 years later. The photograph is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, a national treasure trove of American heritage and art.
