EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic presence of Marsh, Miss, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in 1916. The young woman's expressive profile, framed by a delicate embroidered blouse and intricately styled curls, exudes an air of suspicion and distrust. The image, a glass negative from the 20th century, transports us back to a time of changing fashions and societal norms in America. Marsh's attire, with its high collar and long sleeves, represents the conservative and modest clothing trends of the 1910s. Her hairstyle, adorned with an elaborate hairdo, was a popular choice for women during this era, reflecting the importance placed on personal appearance and presentation. The portrait, now held in the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich heritage of American photography and the enduring allure of vintage imagery. The monochromatic palette, characteristic of Genthe's work, adds to the timeless quality of the photograph, allowing us to connect with the past and appreciate the beauty of a bygone era.
