EDITORS COMMENTS
Miss Consuela Garcia, captured in this striking portrait photograph taken by Arnold Genthe in 1919, embodies the essence of the Roaring Twenties in America. The monochrome image, part of the extensive Genthe Collection at the Library of Congress, showcases Consuela's elegant attire and sophisticated hairstyle that were popular during this era. Born and raised in the United States, Consuela's traditional Mexican heritage is subtly reflected in her unique apparel. She dons a long-sleeved, high-necked dress with intricate floral patterns, a common trend in early 20th-century fashion. The dress, cinched at the waist with a belt, flatters her figure and accentuates her graceful silhouette. Her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, with loose curls cascading down her back, a popular hairstyle among women during this time. The portrait, taken in profile, reveals the depth and character of Miss Garcia's face. Her expressive eyes, framed by long lashes and a subtle smile, convey a sense of confidence and allure. The glass negative captures every detail, from the delicate folds of her dress to the intricacies of her hairdo. This photograph, a testament to the rich cultural heritage and fashion trends of the 1910s in the United States, is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress. It serves as a reminder of the diverse and dynamic history of our country and the people who shaped it.
