EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic beauty of Miss Eyre, taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe in 1916. The young woman, dressed in a simple bathrobe, gazes away from the camera with a solemn expression, her short bobbed hair framing her delicate features. The image, a glass negative from the 20th century, transports us back in time to a quieter era in American history. Miss Eyre's simple yet elegant attire reflects the fashion trends of the 1910s, a time when women began to embrace a more modern and streamlined look. The monochromatic palette of the photograph adds to its timeless quality, with the contrast between the white robe and the dark background accentuating the subject's slender figure and understated glamour. The portrait was taken at an undisclosed location, but its inclusion in the prestigious Library of Congress collection attests to its historical significance. Genthe, a pioneering figure in American photography, captured countless moments of everyday life during the early 20th century, making this image a valuable addition to the heritage of American art and culture.
