EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the elegant and refined beauty of Ava Lowle Willing Astor, also known as Mrs. John Jacob Astor IV, on February 8, 1916. The photograph was taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe, who expertly captured the essence of the Gilded Age through his glass negatives. Ava's timeless allure is evident in her regal posture and enchanting smile. She wears an exquisite dress adorned with intricate beading and a luxurious fur collar, adding to her sophisticated air. The striking contrast between the white and black elements of her attire, including the ostrich feather hat and the fur-trimmed stole, highlights the fashion trends of the 1910s. The monochrome palette of the image adds to its vintage charm, making it a captivating piece of heritage art. Ava's profile, with her eyes gazing up, adds an air of mystery and allure to this stunning portrait. This photograph is a testament to the enduring elegance and grace of the past, providing a glimpse into the world of high society during the early 20th century.
