EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Lasell, Hildegarde, Miss," was created by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe in 1916. The image captures Hildegarde Lasell Watson, an actress, singer, and writer, in a full-length pose. Dressed in an elegant, flowing dress with arms outstretched, Hildegarde exudes confidence and poise. The backdrop of the photograph is simple, allowing the focus to remain on her expressive face and theatrical posture. Hildegarde Lasell was a multitalented performer who graced both the stage and the silver screen during the early 1900s. She was known for her captivating voice and engaging stage presence, making her a popular figure in the entertainment industry. This photograph, taken during the 1910s, showcases her timeless beauty and the fashionable apparel of the era. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the field of photography, captured this image using glass negatives, which resulted in a high-quality, detailed photograph. The use of black and white adds to the vintage feel and emphasizes the contrast between Hildegarde's white dress and her dark hair. This portrait is a testament to the rich heritage of American arts and entertainment during the 20th century. The Library of Congress in the United States is home to this valuable piece of history, making it accessible to researchers, scholars, and anyone interested in exploring the past. The image is a reminder of the enduring influence of the performing arts and the role of photography in preserving our cultural heritage.
