EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic allure of Jane Cowl, an American actress who graced the silver screen during the 1910s. Taken on December 30, 1914, by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image showcases Cowl in an elegant and glamorous setting. She wears a stylish fur-trimmed dress, accessorized with a pearl necklace, a fox fur muff, and a chic hat adorned with a feather. Cowl's direct gaze and confident posture exude an air of sophistication and mystery, drawing the viewer in. The photograph was taken during a pivotal time in the history of American entertainment, as the film industry was transitioning from silent films to talkies. Cowl, with her expressive face and captivating presence, was a popular actress in the moving picture business. This portrait, captured in glass negatives, is a testament to the enduring power of still images to transport us to another time and place. The image is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, a national treasure trove of heritage art and cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of American cinema and fashion, and the role that artists like Arnold Genthe played in documenting and shaping our cultural heritage.
