EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of youth and hopefulness in the enchanting figure of Marguerite Le Breton, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in 1913. The monochrome image, a glass negative from the 20th century, showcases the young woman leaning on her elbow, her head turned away in a thoughtful and introspective pose. Her timeless beauty is accentuated by her delicate features, a naive expression, and a simple yet elegant outfit. Marguerite's attire is reminiscent of the fashion trends of the era, with a high-necked blouse adorned with intricate lace detailing, a long-sleeved dress that falls gracefully to her ankles, and a pearl necklace that adds an air of sophistication. Her hair is styled in an elegant updo, held in place by a decorative headband. The photograph, held in the Library of Congress, is a testament to the enduring allure of vintage fashion and the artistry of Arnold Genthe's lens. The image invites us to ponder the stories and dreams that lie behind the hopeful gaze of this young woman, transporting us to a bygone era of simplicity and grace.
