EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the fearful and frightened expression of Isadora Duncan and her protegee, Angela Duncan, as they gaze directly at the camera with a sense of alarm. The image, created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe between 1915 and 1923, offers a rare glimpse into the emotional depth of the iconic dancers' connection. Isadora, dressed in flowing robes and a headscarf, clutches her robe with one hand and places the other on her chest, as if seeking reassurance or protection. Angela, dressed in a simple tunic and headdress, reaches out to place a comforting hand on Isadora's shoulder. The photograph, with its hauntingly beautiful composition and direct gaze, transports us back to the early 20th century and the world of American modern dance. The image, part of the Arnold Genthe collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the enduring legacy of these pioneering artists and the powerful impact of their performances.
