This striking black and white portrait captures the enigmatic and captivating presence of Marion Morgan, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on June 5, 1917. The young woman, dressed in a sleeveless, high-necked dress with a full skirt, exudes an air of confidence and poise as she gazes directly at the camera with a slight smile. Her hair is styled in an elegant updo, with a few loose curls framing her face.

Her innovative choreography and captivating performances brought new life to the emerging medium of moving pictures.
