EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Marion Morgan Dancers,' is a rare and enchanting glimpse into the world of early American dance, captured between 1914 and 1927 by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe. The image features two young women, Marion Morgan and an unidentified companion, engaged in a graceful and mesmerizing dance. The women are dressed in flowing, ethereal costumes, their bodies in perfect harmony as they hold hands and twirl in a seemingly weightless dance. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in cinematography and photography, expertly captured the essence of this dance performance in this stunning image. The photograph is a testament to the artistry and innovation of the time, showcasing the fusion of dance and film in the early 20th century. The image was likely taken on a film reel, using a nitrate negative, which adds to its historical significance. The location of this photograph is unknown, but it is believed to have been taken in the United States during the 1910s or 1920s. The image is a valuable addition to the heritage of American art, showcasing the beauty and elegance of the human form in motion. The women's swirling skirts and the connection between their hands create a sense of unity and harmony, making this photograph a true treasure of American dance history.
