EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the legendary American puppeteer, Tony Sarg, in the midst of a performance with one of his dancing marionettes in 1928. Known as the "puppet master of America," Sarg revolutionized the art of puppetry with his innovative designs and lively performances. In this image, Sarg, dressed in a sharp suit and holding a top hat, skillfully maneuvers the marionette, which is dressed in a dapper jazz age outfit and appears to be lost in the rhythm of the music. The marionette's expressive face and animated movements bring it to life, making it a true delight for audiences of the 1920s. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the world of early 20th century puppetry, a time when these animated dolls were a popular form of entertainment. The photograph's warm tone and crisp details transport us back to an era of dance, jazz, and the magic of the puppet theater.
