EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the allure and elegance of Jane Cowl, an American actress who rose to prominence during the 1910s in the burgeoning film industry. Taken on October 14, 1918, by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, this image showcases Cowl's impeccable fashion sense, with her wearing a chic fur-trimmed dress, a plumed hat adorned with ostrich feathers, and a long, flowing cowl. The actress is seen looking away from the camera, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to her persona. The photograph is a testament to the glamour and sophistication of the era, as well as the influence of fashion on the silver screen. Cowl's outfit reflects the latest trends in ladieswear, with its combination of fur, feathers, and flowing fabric. The image was captured using glass negatives, a popular technique in photography at the time, and the high contrast between the white and black elements creates a timeless and classic look. As a prominent figure in the film industry, Cowl's image would have graced the pages of magazines and newspapers, further cementing her status as a style icon. Today, this portrait remains an important piece of heritage art, showcasing the fashion and cinematography of the early 20th century and offering a glimpse into the world of entertainment during a pivotal moment in American history.
