Charles Dana Gibson's Seven Hundred Acre Island, 1931 July 25
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph taken by Arnold Genthe, showcasing the picturesque seven-hundred-acre island estate of renowned American illustrator and social commentator, Charles Dana Gibson. The image, captured on July 25, 1931, presents an enchanting view of the island, located in Islesboro, Waldo County, Maine, United States. The photograph, held in the Library of Congress, reveals a serene coastal landscape, with the mainland in the background and the island's headland jutting out into the water. The island's buildings, nestled among the lush greenery, are reminiscent of a quaint New England village. The estate's grand houses, with their stately columns and white facades, exude an air of privacy and exclusivity, reflecting the wealth and status of their owner. Charles Dana Gibson, a prominent figure in American culture during the early 20th century, was known for his illustrations and satirical commentary on society. This photograph offers a glimpse into his personal life, revealing the stunning beauty and tranquility of his island retreat. The image, taken in the 1930s, is a testament to the enduring charm of the American countryside and the allure of private island living. Arnold Genthe, the talented photographer behind the lens, expertly captures the essence of the scene, using the medium of nitrate negative to create a timeless image that continues to captivate viewers today. The photograph's contrast between the dark waters and the light buildings, as well as its stunning composition, make it a valuable addition to the heritage of American art and photography.
