EDITORS COMMENTS
Countess Jean de la Greze, elegantly dressed in a full-length photograph taken by Harris & Ewing in 1918, exudes an air of sophistication and mystery. The countess, whose maiden name was Eleanor Herndon Steele, was the daughter of Charles Steele, a prominent member of the prestigious firm of J.P. Morgan & Co. Her first marriage was to Count Jean de la Greze in 1910, but she divorced him in 1920. In the same year, she married Dr. Louis Debonnesset. However, her third marriage, to H. Hall Clovis in 1930, was also short-lived. The countess's controversial personal life was a subject of public interest, with her divorces making headlines. In this portrait, she is seen wearing a fashionable dress with a feathered hat, spats, and a fur collar. The glass negative captures the intricate details of her clothing, from the texture of the fabric to the delicate folds of the skirt. The image, taken during the 1910s, is a testament to the opulence and glamour of the era. The countess's expression is enigmatic, adding to the allure of this intriguing portrait from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress.
