EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Juliet Barrett Rublee in the role of Tacita the dryad from Percy MacKaye's play "Sanctuary, A Bird Masque," during a rehearsal for the first performance at the Meriden Bird Club sanctuary dedication in New Hampshire, September 1913. The image, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, showcases Rublee in her intricately designed costume, with one arm raised in a gesturing posture, as she stands amidst the lush, outdoor setting of the forest or garden. The concept of the play, which explores the connection between nature and the human spirit, is beautifully embodied in this image. The photograph, which is part of the nitrate negatives collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich heritage of American theatre and performing arts during the early 20th century. The image exudes a sense of drama and entertainment, as Rublee's expressive hand gesture and serious posture suggest the intensity of her character's emotions. The photograph's location, outside in the clearing, further emphasizes the connection between Tacita and the natural world, making it a striking and timeless image.
