EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting beauty and elegance of Camille Clifford (1885-1971), a Belgian-born stage actress who rose to fame as the most celebrated model for Charles Dana Gibson's iconic "Gibson Girl" illustrations. The Gibson Girl was a symbol of the Edwardian era's feminine ideal, characterized by an hourglass figure, high heels, and extravagant headdresses. Born in Brussels, Camille's acting career began in 1902 when she made her debut on the London stage. Her striking resemblance to the Gibson Girl image led Gibson to choose her as his muse, and she graced numerous magazine covers and advertisements throughout the early 1900s. In 1908, she married the Hon. Lyndhurst Bruce, an American diplomat, and socialite. Tragically, Lyndhurst was killed in action during World War One. Following her husband's death, Camille married Captain John Meredyth Jones Evans in 1916. She continued her successful acting career, appearing in numerous plays and films throughout the 1910s and 1920s. This photograph, taken during her prime, showcases her timeless beauty and the iconic Gibson Girl headdress that made her a household name. Camille Clifford's legacy as a stage actress and the most famous model for the Gibson Girl illustrations endures to this day. Her captivating image represents an era of glamour, elegance, and feminine power that continues to inspire artists and audiences alike.
