Mrs. H.R. Lee, Portrait Photograph, 1918 October 30: A Glimpse into the 1910s American Fashion Scene This striking portrait photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on October 30, 1918, captures the elegant and sophisticated style of Mrs. H.R. Lee. The image, part of the extensive Genthe Collection held at the Library of Congress, presents Mrs. Lee dressed in an intricately beaded, long-sleeved dress adorned with delicate embroidery. The dress, which features a high neckline, fitted bodice, and full skirt, is a testament to the ornate and intricate fashion trends of the 1910s. The beading on the dress is a standout detail, with tiny white beads meticulously arranged in a pattern that adds texture and dimension to the dress. The beadwork is further enhanced by the contrasting black background, which emphasizes the intricacy of the design. Mrs. Lee's expression is serene and confident, adding to the overall allure of the portrait. The location and context of the photograph are not explicitly stated, but the fashion and style suggest that this portrait was taken in the United States during the 1910s. The image offers a glimpse into the heritage art of the time, showcasing the attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into creating such intricate clothing pieces. The portrait is a beautiful representation of the fashion trends and cultural heritage of the era, making it an invaluable addition to the Genthe Collection at the Library of Congress.
