EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Margaret, Miss," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on January 28, 1916. The subject of the image is Margaret Sargent, a young woman of the United States, dressed in the fashionable attire of the 1910s. Margaret wears a simple white blouse with a high collar, paired with a dark waistcoat and a long, flowing skirt. She completes her outfit with a small, dainty hat adorned with a ribbon, adding a touch of elegance to her appearance. Arnold Genthe, a key figure in the Ashcan School artistic movement, is known for his ability to capture the essence of everyday life in America. In this portrait, he showcases Margaret's youthful beauty and the timeless quality of her clothing. The image was taken using glass negatives, a common photographic technique of the era. Margaret's profile is turned slightly towards the camera, inviting the viewer to appreciate the intricacies of her clothing and the delicate details of her hat. The monochromatic palette of the photograph, with its contrasting white and black tones, adds to the classic and enduring quality of the image. This portrait of Margaret Sargent is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection, providing a glimpse into the fashion and culture of the early 20th century in the United States. It is a testament to the artistry of Arnold Genthe and the enduring allure of vintage portraits.
