EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled 'Smith, Miss,' was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe in the year 1916. The image is a stunning representation of the fashion and elegance of the early 20th century in the United States. Miss Smith, the subject of the photograph, is depicted in profile, gazing away from the camera with a thoughtful expression. She is dressed in an elegant high-necked blouse, adorned with intricate lace detailing, and a flowing shawl draped over her shoulders. Her hair is styled in an elegant updo, with soft curls framing her face and cascading down her back. The image was captured using glass negatives, a popular photographic technique of the time. The location of the photograph is not specified, but the country setting is suggested by the natural light filtering through the window in the background. Miss Smith's simple yet elegant attire and the peaceful surroundings convey a sense of tranquility and refinement. Arnold Genthe was a pioneering figure in American photography, known for his innovative techniques and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. This portrait of Miss Smith is a testament to his skill and artistry, and a valuable addition to the rich photographic heritage of the United States. The image is held in the collections of the Library of Congress, a national treasure trove of American history and culture.
