EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the intense gaze and fearful expression of Captain Richard Furnival, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in 1912 or 1913. The monochrome image, part of Genthe's extensive collection held at the Library of Congress, presents Furnival in full military uniform, complete with a stern expression and a furrowed brow. His uniform, with its crisp lines and intricate details, adds to the overall sense of formality and gravity. The setting of the photograph is unclear, but the haunting atmosphere is palpable. Furnival's intense stare, fixed directly on the camera lens, seems to convey a sense of unease or alarm. The young captain's frightened countenance suggests that he may be contemplating a dangerous or daunting mission. Despite the unsettling nature of the image, it is also a testament to the fashion of the time. The military uniform, with its high collar, brass buttons, and voluminous sleeves, was a common sight during the early 20th century. The contrast between the stark white uniform and Furnival's dark hair and facial features adds depth and texture to the image. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the men and women who served in the military during this era. It also serves as an important historical document, capturing a moment in time that has since been preserved for future generations to study and appreciate.
