EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Anita Zahn Dancers," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe between the years 1911 and 1942. The image showcases a group of women dressed in traditional Anita Zahn costumes, showcasing the unique and intriguing fashion trends of the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. Anita Zahn was a popular dance instructor and costume designer who gained fame for her innovative and exotic dance styles, which were influenced by various cultures from around the world. Her students, as seen in this photograph, are adorned in a diverse range of clothing, including velvet dresses, coats, jackets, and headpieces. Some wear turbans or headdresses, adding to the ethereal and mystical atmosphere of the image. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during this time period, as well as the importance of dance and fashion in American society. The image, with its high contrast and sharp detail, transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a moment in history that is both visually stunning and historically significant. This photograph is part of the extensive Arnold Genthe Collection held at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage, and the role that photography plays in documenting and celebrating the past.
