EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures Lillian Birmingham, a singer from the early 1910s, as she gazes directly into the camera with an air of confidence and allure. The monochrome image, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on July 10, 1913, showcases Lillian in her elegant attire, dressed in a high-necked blouse and a flowing, knee-length skirt adorned with intricate beadwork. Her outfit is further accentuated by a striking ostrich-feather hat and a pearl necklace, adding an element of glamour and sophistication to the photograph. Lillian's occupation as a singer is evident in her posture and expression, which exudes a sense of poise and readiness to captivate her audience. The black and white image, taken during the 20th century in the United States, is a testament to the rich heritage of American arts and culture during this era. The photograph is part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, making it an invaluable addition to the historical record of fashion and music during the 1910s. Genthe's mastery of the art of photography is evident in the sharp contrasts and intricate details captured in this glass negative. The image invites viewers to explore the story of Lillian Birmingham, a woman of her time, who embodied the spirit of the era through her music and fashion.
