EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Marion Morgan Dancers,' was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe between 1914 and 1927. The image showcases a young woman, Marion Morgan, engaging in a mesmerizing dance performance by the edge of a tranquil lily pond. The serene setting, likely located in the United States, is adorned with lush greenery and a picturesque geographical feature, adding to the enchanting atmosphere. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the field of photography, expertly captured this moment in black and white, using a nitrate negative process. The monochromatic palette accentuates the grace and elegance of Marion Morgan as she gracefully executes intricate arm movements, embodying the spirit of the 1910s and 1920s. The image, held in the prestigious Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of America during this era. The photograph is a still image of a performance, capturing a moment in time that has been preserved for generations to appreciate. Marion Morgan, with her poised and confident demeanor, captivates the viewer's attention, inviting them to imagine the story behind this extraordinary moment. This photograph, with its timeless beauty and historical significance, is a must-have for any collection of American art, dance, or photography. It serves as a reminder of the power of art to transport us to another time and place, allowing us to connect with the past in a deeply personal way.
