EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Julia Marlowe and Edward H. Southern in Macbeth,' was captured by the renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe between 1906 and 1913. The image showcases the legendary actors in a dramatic scene from Shakespeare's tragic play, 'Macbeth.' Julia Marlowe, an acclaimed American actress of the early 20th century, is depicted in an elegant and flowing dress, embodying the enigmatic Lady Macbeth. Her intense gaze and expressive hands reveal her character's manipulative and ambitious nature. Seated next to Marlowe is Edward H. Southern, who portrayed Macbeth in this production. Southern, also an American actor, wears a fitted suit and a solemn expression, conveying the inner turmoil and guilt of the titular character. The photograph, taken at a theater or playhouse, is a testament to the rich heritage of American acting during the 1900s and 1910s. The image is an autochromes print, a color process developed by the Lumière brothers in 1907, which allowed for the production of vibrant and detailed color photographs. The use of this advanced technology adds an extra layer of allure to this portrait, making it a valuable piece of both artistic and historical significance. The Congressional Library, a prominent cultural institution in the United States, houses this remarkable photograph, preserving it for future generations to appreciate and study the evolution of American theater and performing arts.
