EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the enigmatic beauty of Sara Uhthoff, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on July 24, 1915. The image, a testament to the timeless allure of vintage photography, showcases Sara in an elegant V-neck dress adorned with intricate beadwork and a pair of delicate earrings. Her hair is styled in an elegant updo, with a few loose tendrils framing her face and adding to her faraway, wistful expression. The photograph, a glass negative from the 20th century, was taken during the 1910s, a decade marked by significant changes in fashion and societal norms. Sara's outfit, with its high neckline and modest silhouette, reflects the era's emphasis on femininity and refinement. The image, part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, is a poignant reminder of the rich fashion heritage of the United States. Arnold Genthe, a pioneering figure in American photography, expertly captured the essence of his subject, inviting viewers to ponder the thoughts and emotions that may have been swirling in Sara's mind as she gazed off into the distance. The portrait is a testament to the power of a single image to transport us to another time and place, and to evoke a sense of wonder and curiosity about the people and stories that came before us.
