EDITORS COMMENTS
Arnold Genthe's captivating photograph, Swiskaya, Countess, and Male Dance Partner, captures the essence of the 1910s American aristocracy during an elegant ballroom dance. The image, taken between 1917 and 1929, showcases Countess Swiskaya in a stunning full-length tutu, her lithe form poised en pointe as she leans back, her eyes closed in concentration. Her male dance partner, dressed in formal attire, steadily supports her, their connection palpable. The image, a nitrate negative from the Library of Congress, exudes an air of timeless beauty and grace, transporting us to a bygone era. The couple's vintage apparel, from the ornate tutu to the tailored suit, adds to the allure of this performance. The image, a testament to the performing arts and fashion of the era, is a must-have for any collection of 20th-century American heritage art.
