EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait photograph, titled "Cravath, Vera, Miss," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on June 29, 1917. The image, now held in the Library of Congress, showcases the captivating beauty and youthful allure of Vera Cravath, who gazes intently at the camera with a confident and poised expression. The photograph was taken during the 1910s, a decade marked by significant social and cultural changes in the United States. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the field of photography, captured this image using glass negatives, a technique that was popular during the early 20th century. The photograph is in black and white, adding to its timeless and classic appeal. Vera's hair is styled elegantly up, framing her face and accentuating her high cheekbones and delicate features. Her hairdo, which was popular among young women during the era, adds to the vintage charm of the image. The portrait offers a glimpse into the heritage and art of the early 20th century, showcasing the fashion, beauty, and style of the time. The image is a testament to the enduring power of photography to capture and preserve moments in history. This portrait of Vera Cravath is a beautiful example of Genthe's skill and artistry, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the United States.
