EDITORS COMMENTS
Grete Wiesenthal, also known as the 'Donauwalzer' or Danube Waltz, is captured in this stunning photograph taken by Viennese photographer Rudolf Jobst between 1896 and 1942. The image, a lantern slide reproduction by Arnold Genthe, depicts Wiesenthal in a full-length portrait as she gracefully balances on one leg, leaning back with a serene expression on her face. The setting is an outdoor garden, with the sun casting beautiful shadows and adding to the overall sense of enjoyment and amusement. Grete Wiesenthal was a renowned dancer and performer, known for her exceptional skill and artistry in traditional Austrian dances. Her performance of the Donauwalzer, a lively and elegant waltz, was a crowd favorite and a symbol of Austrian heritage. This photograph captures the essence of her performance, showcasing her poise, balance, and the timeless beauty of the dance. The image, a relic of the 20th century and the 1910s, is a testament to the enduring appeal of the arts and the human spirit. It is a reminder of a bygone era, a time when the simple pleasures of life, such as dance and enjoyment, brought people together and brought joy to their hearts. Today, it is a valuable addition to the collections of the Library of Congress, a testament to the rich cultural heritage of both Austria and the United States.
