EDITORS COMMENTS
MacKaye, Percy, Daughter of, Standing Outdoors, 1913 Sept" is a captivating photograph taken by the renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. The image captures a young girl named Percy MacKaye, standing confidently on a hillside overlooking a moorland, with her hands gesturing in the direction of the scenic view before her. The girl, dressed in a simple yet elegant dress, appears to be deeply engrossed in the beauty of the natural surroundings, her expression radiating a sense of wonder and curiosity. The photograph was taken in the early 1910s, during a time when the fashion for children's clothing was shifting towards more practical and comfortable designs. Percy's dress, with its high collar and long sleeves, reflects this trend, while also showcasing the timeless elegance of the era. The image was captured on a nitrate negative, a photographic process that was popular during the early 20th century. The use of this technique adds to the vintage feel of the photograph, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. The location of the photograph is not explicitly stated, but the rolling hills and moorland in the background suggest a rural or country setting. The photograph is now part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, a testament to the enduring value of this work as a historical and artistic artifact. Overall, "MacKaye, Percy, Daughter of, Standing Outdoors, 1913 Sept" is a beautiful and evocative portrait of childhood, capturing the essence of a moment in time and the innocence and wonder of a young girl's connection to nature.
