Fontaine, Miss, 1916 July 31: A Timeless Moment in American History This evocative photograph, captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on July 31, 1916, presents a captivating image of Evan Burrows Fontaine, a young woman dressed in an intricately jeweled sari, standing in a serene and poised manner. The location of the photograph is not definitively known, but it is believed to have been taken during a performance or dance event. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 1910s, a time when the influence of various global cultures was beginning to shape American society. The sari, a traditional Indian garment, is a striking contrast to the Western-style clothing that was dominant during this period. Genthe, a pioneer in the use of glass negatives, expertly captures the essence of the moment, with Fontaine's profile framed against the blank backdrop, her eyes closed, and her hands holding the edges of the sari. The image is a treasure trove of history, offering a glimpse into a bygone era and the diverse cultural influences that shaped America. The photograph is a reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage and the role that art and performance play in shaping our collective memory. It is a still image that resonates with the timeless beauty of human expression and the enduring power of art to transport us to another place and time.
