EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait photograph, titled "Lieutenant H. Wanger," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on September 20, 1918. The image is a poignant reminder of the men and women who served in the United States military during the First World War. Lieutenant H. Wanger is depicted in full length, standing confidently against a plain backdrop, dressed in his military uniform. The image captures the essence of the era, with the Lieutenant's jodhpurs, high-top boots, and tunic, all emblazoned with insignia and rank, reflecting the practical yet formal attire of the time. The sharp contrast between the white shirt, black tie, and the dark uniform adds to the overall impact of the image. The photograph is part of Arnold Genthe's extensive collection, held at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. Genthe, a pioneer in the field of photography, is known for his innovative techniques and his ability to capture the human spirit. This portrait of Lieutenant H. Wanger is a testament to his skill and artistry. The image is particularly significant as it offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was embroiled in the greatest conflict it had ever seen. The uniform, the pose, and the expression on Lieutenant Wanger's face all convey a sense of duty, determination, and resilience. As we look at this photograph, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served during the First World War, and the role that the United States played in shaping the course of history. The image is a powerful reminder of the enduring legacy of the war and the indelible mark it left on the world.
