EDITORS COMMENTS
Desha and Leah: A Timeless Dance in Port Washington, 1921 This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on August 21, 1921, captures the moment of sisterly bonding between Desha and Leah Delteil as they dance in the picturesque gardens of Port Washington, Nassau County, New York. The siblings, dressed in elegant 1920s attire, exude a sense of joy and playfulness as they hold hands and perform a dance that speaks to the rich cultural heritage of the era. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in American photography, expertly captures the expressive posture and fluid movements of the dancers, with Desha gracefully kneeling and Leah elegantly posed in a full-length dress. The contrast between the dark clothing and the light garden setting adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a stunning example of the artistic expression of the 1920s. The Delteil sisters, of Slovene descent, are a testament to the diverse and vibrant cultural landscape of America during the 20th century. Their performance, whether for their own enjoyment or for an audience, is a reminder of the importance of preserving our heritage through the arts. This photograph, a nitrate negative held in the Library of Congress, is a valuable piece of history that transports us back in time, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and simplicity of a moment shared between two sisters in a garden on a warm summer day in Port Washington, New York.
