EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Kingsbury Foster, captured in this striking portrait photograph taken by Arnold Genthe on March 24, 1919, embodies the essence of fashionable American women during the 1910s. The monochrome image, a glass negative from the Genthe Collection at the Library of Congress, showcases Mrs. Foster's elegant attire, which includes a long, flowing white dress adorned with ostrich feathers. The use of these exotic feathers adds an air of opulence and allure to her outfit, reflecting the trend of incorporating natural elements into clothing during this era. Arnold Genthe, a renowned photographer of the 20th century, expertly captures the subtle details of Mrs. Foster's dress, from the intricate beading along the hemline to the delicate folds of the fabric. Her hat, also adorned with ostrich feathers, complements her dress and completes her sophisticated appearance. The location of the portrait is not specified, but the image exudes a sense of refinement and sophistication, making it a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress. Mrs. Foster's portrait, with its timeless beauty and enduring fashion appeal, offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of American women during the 1910s and serves as a testament to the artistic vision of Arnold Genthe.
