EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. De Kerlar, captured in this striking portrait photograph taken by Arnold Genthe on February 11, 1918, exudes an air of quiet intensity and sophistication. The monochrome image, a beautiful example of Genthe's mastery of photography, reveals the intricacies of her hairstyle, with its elegant waves framing a face that seems to convey a deep inner thought. Her hand, delicately placed on the table before her, adds an element of drama and mystery to the composition. The photograph, a glass negative from the Arnold Genthe Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to the United States of the 1910s. Mrs. De Kerlar's expression, with its subtle yet expressive features, invites the viewer to contemplate the complexities of human emotion and the power of a single image to capture a moment in time. Arnold Genthe, a pioneering figure in American photography, was known for his innovative techniques and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. This portrait of Mrs. De Kerlar is a testament to his skill and artistry, a visual reminder of a bygone era and a reminder of the enduring power of photography to preserve history and evoke emotion.
