EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic allure of Miss H.A. Johnson in 1914. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on December 15 of that year, the image showcases the young woman's elegant attire, consisting of a high-necked blouse with a collar, a fitted waistcoat, and a long, flowing skirt. The intricate detailing of her hairdo, with strands carefully pinned up and adorned with a decorative clip, adds to the sophistication of her appearance. Miss Johnson's gaze is directed away from the camera, inviting the viewer to contemplate her thoughts and emotions. The image, which was captured on glass negatives, is a testament to Genthe's mastery of the art of photography during the 1910s in America. The monochrome palette and the timeless quality of the image make it a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress. The portrait offers a glimpse into the fashion trends of the era, with the combination of white and black clothing being a popular choice for formal occasions. The image also highlights the importance of individuality and self-expression, as Miss Johnson's unique style and poise distinguish her from her contemporaries. Overall, this portrait by Arnold Genthe serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the early 20th century.
