EDITORS COMMENTS

The photograph, created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in 1912, showcases Mme. Namara-Toye in a full-length pose, dressed in an intricately designed dress adorned with fringes and beads. Her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, held in place by a delicate bracelet and a hand that rests gently on her head. Marguerite Evelyn Cecilia Banks, better known by her stage name Marguerite Namara or Marguerite Namara-Toye, was a celebrated soprano who graced the stages of various opera houses in the United States. Her striking appearance and powerful voice made her a favorite among audiences during the 1910s. The portrait was taken in a studio setting, with a backdrop that adds a sense of sophistication and grandeur to the image. The glass negative technique employed by Genthe results in a high-quality, detailed image that showcases the intricacies of Mme. Namara-Toye's clothing, from the delicate fabric of her dress to the intricate patterns on her jewelry. As a performer, Mme.
