EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Ordynsky, Mr." and dated November 7, 1915, was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. The image captures a man of Russian descent, Mr. Ordynsky, who is shown sitting in a formal setting, dressed in a suit and coat. The man's posture is somewhat confused and contemplative, with one hand resting on his head and the other holding a folded piece of paper. He appears to be deep in thought, possibly engrossed in reading the document. The image is a testament to the fashion trends of the early 1910s in America, with Mr. Ordynsky's suit and dress coat reflecting the formal attire of the time. The photograph was taken using glass negatives, a common technique in the early 20th century, and the resulting monochrome image adds to the timeless and classic feel of the portrait. The location of the photograph is unknown, but it is now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C., a repository of heritage art and historical documents. The image is a still snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and the people who lived during that time. The photograph's enduring quality is a testament to Genthe's skill as a photographer and the power of the medium to capture the essence of a moment in time.
