EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mrs. B.W. Stone" and created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in 1915, offers a glimpse into the fashion and elegance of the early 20th century. The subject, a woman identified as Mrs. B.W. Stone, is depicted in profile, her eyes looking away from the camera, adding an enigmatic quality to the image. She wears a high-necked blouse with intricate lace detailing, a popular trend during the 1910s. The blouse is paired with a long, flowing skirt, which complements her slim figure and adds to the overall grace and sophistication of the image. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in American photography, captured this glass negative image with exceptional clarity and detail. The contrast between the white collar and cuffs of her blouse and the dark background emphasizes the intricacy of the lace design. The woman's intelligent expression and the subtle folds of her clothing suggest a woman of refinement and culture. This portrait is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress, showcasing the fashion trends and artistic style of the 1910s. The image invites viewers to ponder the woman's story and the historical context in which she lived, making it a fascinating piece of both fashion and social history.
