EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures Theda Bara, an American actress who rose to fame in the silent film era, on November 11, 1916. The image, created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, showcases Bara in an introspective moment, with a distrustful and suspicious expression as she looks away from the camera. Her hands are delicately placed on her head, adding to the sense of contemplation and introspection. Bara, born Theodosia Burr Goodman, was a pioneering figure in the film industry, known for her seductive and mysterious on-screen persona. Her groundbreaking performances in films such as "A Fool There Was" and "Cleopatra" helped to redefine the role of women in American cinema. This portrait, taken during the 1910s, is a testament to the art of cinematography during the early days of moving pictures. Genthe, a master of glass negatives, expertly captured the intricacies of Bara's expression and posture, creating an enduring image that continues to captivate audiences today. The portrait is now part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, a national treasure trove of American heritage art and culture. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of American entertainment and the influential figures who shaped it, including Bara and Genthe.
