EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mr. G.G. Hartley," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on April 15, 1918. The image is a full-length depiction of a man named G.G. Hartley, dressed in military uniform, ready for duty during the First World War. The photograph is part of Genthe's extensive collection held at the Library of Congress. Genthe expertly captures Hartley's determined and focused expression, as he stands tall and proud, clad in his military attire. The soldier's uniform consists of jodhpurs, puttees, and a tunic, all typical of the military uniforms worn during the early 1900s. The use of black and white in this photograph adds a sense of timelessness and historical significance to the image. The backdrop of the photograph is simple, with a plain white wall serving as the only distraction from the subject. The focus is entirely on Hartley, who stands confidently with his hands in his pockets, exuding an air of authority and strength. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by men like Hartley during the First World War, and serves as an important historical record of the era. Arnold Genthe was a prolific photographer, known for his work documenting the people and events of the early 20th century in America. This photograph of Mr. G.G. Hartley is a testament to his skill as a portrait photographer and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. The image is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection, and a significant contribution to the historical record of the United States during the First World War.
