EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the elegance and poise of Mrs. John R. McGinley, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on October 27, 1917. The image showcases Mrs. McGinley's elegant dress and intricately styled hairdo, adorned with a beautiful pearl necklace. Her direct gaze and stillness exude confidence and sophistication. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in glass negative photography, expertly captured the essence of the 1910s fashion scene with this timeless portrait. The monochromatic palette adds to the vintage feel, transporting us back in time. The Library of Congress houses this precious piece of heritage art, which showcases the concept of women's wear during the early 20th century. Mrs. McGinley's outfit, with its high neckline and long sleeves, reflects the modest and refined fashion trends of the era. The portrait also highlights the importance of jewelry in women's adornment, with the pearl necklace adding a touch of luxury and elegance to the overall look. This poised and poignant portrait of Mrs. John R. McGinley by Arnold Genthe is a testament to the power of photography to preserve history and capture the essence of a bygone era.
