1880 Chicago Depressed Entertainers Illinois Leaning Back One Woman Only Performers Unhappy Vaudeville Afro Dejected
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white vintage print titled "Dejected Vaudeville Performer" we are transported back to the vibrant city of Chicago, Illinois in the late 19th century. The photograph captures a moment of profound sadness as a woman vaudeville performer sits alone, her face etched with melancholy. Taken around 1880 by Underwood Archives, this studio shot beautifully portrays the emotional depth of this historic entertainer. Her afro hairdo adds a touch of uniqueness to her appearance, reflecting both her individuality and the cultural diversity prevalent during that era. The vertical composition emphasizes her isolation and introspection, while also highlighting the exquisite details of her attire and surroundings. As she leans back against an ornate chair, we can almost feel the weight of her despair. This image serves as a poignant reminder that even entertainers who bring joy to others can experience their own moments of sorrow. It offers us a glimpse into the complex inner world behind the glittering façade often associated with performers. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are reminded not only of our shared human experiences but also how photography has preserved these fleeting emotions for generations to come.
