EDITORS COMMENTS
Arnold Genthe's captivating photograph, titled "Block, Stella, Miss, 1919 Nov," showcases a young woman named Stella Block in a stunning full-length portrait. The image, taken at the waters edge, captures Stella with her arms outstretched and her head thrown back, as if she is lost in the moment and embracing the freedom of the sea breeze. The location of the photograph is not explicitly stated, but the sandy beach and the vast expanse of the sea in the background suggest that it was taken in the United States, possibly at a coastal town. Taken in the 1910s, this photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the American people during the 20th century. The use of a nitrate negative adds to the vintage feel of the image, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical photography. The image is reminiscent of a performance or a dance, with Stella's graceful posture and the fluidity of her arms. The contrast between her dark attire and the light sand and water creates a striking visual effect. This photograph is a beautiful example of Genthe's skill as a photographer, capturing the essence of a moment in time and preserving it for future generations to appreciate. The Library of Congress, which holds this image in its collection, is a testament to the enduring value of historical photography as an art form and a window into the past.
