EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe between 1911 and 1942, features an unidentified dancer, believed to be possibly Elizabeth Duncan. The image captures the essence of the 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s in the United States, showcasing the unique blend of modernity and tradition during this era. The dancer is dressed in a flowing chiffon Grecian-style costume, which accentuates her graceful form. Her bare feet are in perfect alignment, poised in a classic dance position. The image was likely taken during a performance, possibly at one of the many camps or congresses dedicated to modern dance that were popular during this time. The use of a nitrate negative adds to the vintage feel of the photograph, highlighting the texture and tone of the dancer's skin and the delicate fabric of her dress. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of modern dance in America and the influence of pioneering dancers like Elizabeth Duncan. The Library of Congress holds the Genthe Collection, which includes this photograph and many others that document the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 20th century. This photograph is a reminder of the power of the human body in motion and the beauty of the art of dance.
