EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Desha, Grace, and [either Phyllis or Leah],' was captured by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on April 27, 1921. The image showcases three women, Desha Eva Podgorek, Grace, and [Phyllis or Leah Delteil], standing in a garden, their bare feet sinking into the soft earth. The women are dressed in flowing, ethnic-inspired costumes, with Desha and Grace balancing on one leg each, arms raised and gesturing expressively. Leah, with a serene expression, looks up, her arms also raised but in a more subdued manner. The trio exudes a sense of harmony and balance, their bodies expressing the joy and freedom of dance. The photograph is a beautiful representation of the arts and performing traditions of the early 20th century in America. Taken as a nitrate negative, this image is a precious heritage art piece, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the United States and the expressive nature of the human body.
