EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait from 1916, renowned American illustrator Charles Dana Gibson is seen enjoying a moment of relaxation and camaraderie with Mrs. Haydn Harris at the Illustrators Ball in New York City. Gibson, born in 1867, was a pioneering figure in the world of illustration, best known for creating the iconic Gibson Girl – an elegant and curvaceous representation of feminine beauty that dominated popular culture during the early 20th century. The Illustrators Ball was an annual event that brought together the brightest stars of the illustration world, providing an opportunity for them to celebrate their craft and connect with one another. In this image, Gibson, dressed in a dapper suit and tie, is shown in a relaxed and conversational pose with Mrs. Harris, who is elegantly attired in a flowing gown. The warm and inviting ambiance of the event is captured through the soft focus and warm lighting of the photograph. Gibson's influence on American society and culture was profound, and his illustrations graced the pages of some of the most popular magazines of the time, including Harper's Bazaar, Collier's, and Life. His work helped to define the aesthetic of the era, and his Gibson Girl became a symbol of feminine beauty and grace. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the personal life of this influential artist, and serves as a reminder of the important role that illustrators played in shaping the cultural landscape of their time.
