EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Drake, Portrait Photograph, 1919 Feb. 10" is a captivating black and white portrait photograph taken by the renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. This image, captured in the 1910s, is a testament to the unique artistic vision of Genthe and a window into the past. The subject of the photograph is a woman, whose identity remains unknown, but who is captured in an elegant and enigmatic pose. She is dressed in the fashion of the time, with a high collar and a flowing, textured fabric that adds depth and texture to the image. Her hair is styled in an unusual yet sophisticated updo, with a distinctive wave that cascades down the side of her head. The photograph was taken using a glass negative process, which gives it a rich, detailed texture and a timeless quality. The contrast between the light and dark areas of the image is striking, with the woman's face and hands standing out in sharp relief against the dark background. Arnold Genthe was a pioneering photographer who is known for his innovative techniques and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. This portrait of Mrs. Drake is a prime example of his skill and artistry. It is a reminder of the past, a glimpse into a bygone era, and a testament to the power of photography to preserve history and capture the human spirit. This photograph is part of the Arnold Genthe Collection at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C., one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of his work. It is a valuable addition to the heritage of American photography and a reminder of the rich cultural history of the United States.
