EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic beauty of Marion Cleveland, a young woman from Mississippi, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe around 1915. The image, a glass negative, showcases Marion's elegant attire, consisting of a high-necked tunic and long, flowing skirt, which were popular fashion choices for women during the early 1910s. Her hair is styled in an intricate updo, adorned with delicate pins and accessories, reflecting the meticulous attention given to personal appearance during this era. Marion gazes away from the camera, her expression thoughtful and introspective, adding an air of mystery to the image. The photograph was taken in Cleveland, Mississippi, a small town nestled in the heart of the American South. The background of the portrait is simple, with a plain wall serving as the backdrop, allowing the subject's clothing and demeanor to take center stage. Arnold Genthe was a prolific photographer, known for his portraits of prominent figures, as well as everyday people. This image of Marion Cleveland is a poignant reminder of the fashion trends and social norms of the early 20th century, and serves as an intriguing glimpse into the past. The photograph is now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical significance and artistic merit.
