EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic charm of Mrs. Paul M. Herzog, photographed by the renowned Arnold Genthe in 1916. The image, held in the vast collections of the Library of Congress, transports us back to the early 20th century, with its intricate brocade dress and the timeless elegance of the sitter's hairstyle. The woman, dressed in a voluminous, high-necked gown, gazes away from the camera, her frizzy hair cascading down her back in soft waves. The texture of the fabric is beautifully rendered in the photograph, with the delicate patterns of the brocade standing out against the stark contrast of the white collar and cuffs. The dress, with its full skirt and fitted bodice, is a testament to the fashion trends of the era, while the woman's expression adds an air of mystery and allure. The photograph, captured on glass negatives, is a stunning example of Genthe's mastery of the medium, with the contrast between light and shadow creating a captivating depth and dimension. This image, with its rich textures and intricate details, is a treasure of heritage art and a reminder of the enduring beauty of the past.
