EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mrs. Anna T. Craig" and created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in 1913, offers a glimpse into the fashion and elegance of the early 20th century. The subject, Anna Craig, is depicted in profile, her mournful expression contrasting with the intricate details of her apparel. She wears a high-necked, long-sleeved lace dress with a fitted bodice, adorned with delicate embroidery and beading. The dress's full skirt is gathered at the waist, creating a voluminous silhouette. Anna's hat, perched atop her head, features a wide brim and a delicate ribbon bow. The photograph was captured on glass negatives, a common technique of the time, and showcases the artist's mastery of the medium. The contrast between the crisp, white collar of Anna's blouse and the dark background adds depth and dimension to the image. The photograph is part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, a testament to the enduring value of this work as a historical artifact and a beautiful example of early 20th century fashion. Anna's attire, with its high neckline and full skirt, reflects the modest and feminine trends of the era. The photograph invites us to reflect on the fashion and social norms of the time, as well as the timeless beauty and artistry of Genthe's work. With its intricate details and evocative subject matter, this portrait continues to captivate and inspire viewers over a century after it was taken.
