EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Person wearing a mask made by W.T. Benda, 1925 Sept. 20," is a portrait of a young woman dressed in traditional Japanese attire, complete with a striking mask created by the renowned artist Wladyslaw Teodor Benda. The image, captured by the acclaimed American photographer Arnold Genthe, transports us back to the 1920s in the United States. The young woman sits in a tranquil garden setting, her eyes downcast, as she dons the intricately designed mask, which adds an air of mystery and allure to her appearance. The mask, made by Benda, is a work of art in itself, with intricate details and bold lines that stand out against the simple background of the garden. The woman's kimono, a traditional Japanese dress, is adorned with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, adding to the overall sense of heritage and tradition. The photograph is a testament to the fusion of Eastern and Western influences that characterized the 1920s in America, as well as the growing popularity of Japanese culture during this time. This image, captured on nitrate negative film, is a stunning example of Genthe's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time, as well as the artistry of both the model and the mask maker. The photograph is a conceptual work that explores the themes of disguise, entertainment, and fashion, and remains a captivating piece of heritage art to this day.
