The image, which captures the essence of the Roaring Twenties, features Gerard D. Erlanger, the son of Baron Emile D. Erlanger, and his wife, Edythe Baker, who was an actress at the time. The couple's sophisticated attire and poses exude an air of wealth and sophistication. Gerard is dressed in a dapper suit and top hat, while Edythe dons a chic cloche hat and an elegant gown. The use of dramatic lighting and bold shadows adds to the image's visual impact, making it a standout piece of the era's portrait photography. Madame Yevonde, a pioneering figure in the world of photography, was known for her innovative and artistic approach to portraiture. Her unique style, which often involved the use of dramatic lighting and bold compositions, set her apart from her contemporaries and made her a favorite among the upper classes of the time. This photograph of Mr. and Mrs. Gerard D. Erlanger is a testament to the couple's style and sophistication, as well as Madame Yevonde's artistic vision and skill as a photographer. It is a beautiful and timeless image that captures the essence of the 1920s and the glamour and elegance of the era. The photograph was taken on May 17, 1929, and is part of the Yevonde Portrait Archive, which is held by the ILN/Mary Evans Picture Library. It is a treasure trove of historical images that offer a glimpse into the lives and times of the people and events that shaped the 20th century. This photograph, in particular, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of fashion, photography, and the Roaring Twenties.
