EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1890 and 1900, features Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering American photographer and journalist, standing full-length with two other individuals. Johnston, dressed in a suit and wearing an intriguing mustache, defies gender norms of the time with her cross-dressing attire. Known for her groundbreaking work in photojournalism and documentation of historic sites, Johnston's unconventional appearance in this self-portrait adds an intriguing layer to her multifaceted persona. The trio is posed in front of a plain backdrop, their expressions revealing a sense of mischief and playfulness. The sepia tone of the albumen print lends an air of nostalgia and historicity, transporting us back to the late 19th century. This striking image, part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the life of a trailblazing figure in American history and the arts.
