EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures Margaret Phelps Montgomery, a young woman of the early 20th century, on September 27, 1912. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image showcases Montgomery in a full-length, high-collared dress with a fitted bodice and a voluminous skirt. The dress is adorned with a bow at the waist, adding an elegant touch to the ensemble. Montgomery's hair is styled in an intricate updo, with a ribbon securing it in place. She stands with a confident and poised demeanor, gazing off to the side with a thoughtful expression. The photograph was taken during the 1910s, a time of significant change in American fashion. The Edwardian era was coming to an end, and new trends were emerging. Montgomery's outfit reflects the transitional period between the old and the new, with elements of both the traditional and the modern. The image is a glass negative, adding to its historical significance. It is a still image, frozen in time, offering a glimpse into the past. The portrait is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, a testament to the rich heritage of American art and photography. Montgomery's portrait is a reminder of the fashion, culture, and history of the early 20th century in the United States. It is a beautiful and intriguing image that continues to captivate viewers, offering a window into a bygone era.
