EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Goudy, Frederick, Mr. at his printing press, 1924 Mar. 15,' was taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. The image showcases Frederick Goudy, a celebrated typographer and printer, in his element as he stands confidently before his printing press. Dressed in overalls, Goudy exudes a sense of purpose and dedication as he places a hand on his hip, gazing intently at the text before him. The photograph, taken during the 1920s, captures the essence of the era's industrial heritage and the artistry of the printing process. Goudy, a prolific designer and innovator, is best known for his distinctive typefaces, including the popular 'Kennecott' and 'Copperplate Gothic.' In this image, we see him not only as a designer but also as a craftsman, meticulously working on a project that likely bears his unique lettering. The printing press, a symbol of the era's technological advancements, serves as the backdrop to this portrait of a man deeply engrossed in his work. This full-length, one-of-a-kind image is a testament to the enduring legacy of both Arnold Genthe and Frederick Goudy, whose contributions to American arts and culture continue to inspire and influence contemporary designers and artists. The photograph, held in the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to the historical record of the 20th century's artistic and industrial landscape.
