EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic beauty of Belle Rutland, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on August 31, 1914. The image, now held in the Library of Congress, showcases Belle's striking brown hair cascading down her shoulders, framing her inquisitive and curious expression. The country setting, with its simple background, adds to the sense of timelessness and nostalgia. Born in the United States during the early 20th century, Belle embodies the charm and allure of the 1910s. Genthe, a master of his craft, expertly captures the essence of this young woman, inviting viewers to ponder her story and the secrets hidden behind her captivating gaze. The photograph, a glass negative, is a testament to the rich heritage of American photography and the enduring appeal of portraiture. The contrast between the white collar and the dark background emphasizes Belle's profile, drawing the viewer's focus to her intriguing features. As a still image, this portrait invites contemplation and reflection, offering a glimpse into the past and the lives of those who came before us. The Library of Congress, as a guardian of our national heritage, preserves images like this one, ensuring that future generations can continue to be inspired by the art and history they represent.
