EDITORS COMMENTS
Miss Gardner, captured in this enchanting portrait photograph taken by Arnold Genthe on November 17, 1918, exudes an air of mystery and allure. The image, part of the extensive Genthe Collection housed at the Library of Congress, showcases the subject in an unusual yet captivating outfit. Dressed in a full-length, striped skirt and anklets, Miss Gardner's appearance suggests a connection to the country or perhaps a performer in a camp or theatrical setting. The striped skirt, with its bold white and black design, adds a dynamic contrast to the monochrome background, while the anklets peeking out from beneath the hem add a touch of femininity and elegance. The photograph, taken during the 1910s in the United States, showcases the unique fashion trends of the era. The use of ankle-length skirts and anklets was a popular choice for women during this time, allowing them to showcase their legs while still adhering to societal norms. Arnold Genthe, a renowned photographer of the 20th century, expertly captures the essence of Miss Gardner's character in this portrait. The glass negative, now preserved in the Heritage Art Collection at the Library of Congress, serves as a testament to the rich heritage of American photography and the fashion trends of the past.
