EDITORS COMMENTS
Desha Delteil, a Slovenian dancer, gracefully performs an expressive dance in Port Washington, Long Island, New York, on August 21, 1921. With her arms raised and head thrown back, she exudes a sense of passion and emotion as she stands on one leg in this full-length, black and white portrait. The garden setting adds to the serene and ethereal atmosphere of the performance. Delteil's flowing, barefoot costume and the simple, yet elegant, dress she wears are reminiscent of the fashion trends of the 1920s. This image, captured by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, showcases the beauty and artistry of the human body in motion. The nitrate negative, a testament to the rich heritage of American performing arts, is now preserved in the Library of Congress.
