EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait of Greta Garbo, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in July 1925, captures the enigmatic allure of the Swedish-born American actress at the height of her fame during the 1920s. The image, which was likely taken in a studio setting, showcases Garbo's captivating gaze and expressive body language. With her arm resting on a chair and her head tilted slightly to the side, she exudes an air of confidence and mystery that made her one of the most intriguing figures in early Hollywood. Born as Greta Lovisa Gustafsson in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1905, Garbo came to the United States in 1924 and quickly rose to prominence as a movie star. Her unique screen presence, characterized by her sultry looks and enigmatic demeanor, made her an instant sensation among audiences. This portrait, taken just a year into her acting career, is a testament to the magnetic power of her persona and the skill of Genthe in capturing it on film. The image is part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, which holds a wealth of historical materials related to the arts, entertainment, and performing arts in the United States. This particular portrait, with its timeless beauty and enduring appeal, is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us today.
