EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the distinguished image of Dr. Fritz Von Holm, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe between 1913 and 1923. The doctor, dressed in formal attire, wears a doctorate robe adorned with colorful academic insignia and multiple medals, signifying his impressive qualifications and achievements. The background is simple, with a subtle texture that allows the subject to stand out prominently. Arnold Genthe, a pioneering figure in American photography, captured this image during the 1910s, a time of significant social and cultural change in the United States. The doctor's attire, with its traditional elements and formal appearance, represents a sense of continuity and tradition amidst the modernizing world. The glass negative photograph, part of the extensive Arnold Genthe Collection housed at the Library of Congress, showcases the photographer's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of his subject. The doctor's profile, with his serious expression and piercing gaze, exudes a sense of authority and intelligence. The high contrast between the light and dark areas adds depth and texture to the image, making it a captivating piece of heritage art. The doctor's military uniform, complete with decorative medals, suggests a connection to the armed forces, possibly indicating his service in the United States military. The combination of his medical degree and military background adds an intriguing layer of complexity to this portrait, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical images.
