EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the anticipation of a young girl named Miss King, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on May 18, 1917. The image, a glass negative, showcases the teenager in a simple yet elegant dress, her hair styled in an intricate bun and adorned with a bow. The neckline of her dress reveals a hint of collarbone, adding to her youthful allure. The girl's expression is one of quiet contemplation, as if she is awaiting the arrival of someone or some event. The photograph, a testament to the fashion of the 1910s, is a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the lives of American teenagers during that era. The image is part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of heritage art and historical records, and serves as a reminder of the rich and diverse history of the United States.
