EDITORS COMMENTS
Arnold Genthe's captivating portrait of the Dolly Sisters, Janka Deutsch (left) and Rosie Deutsch (right), taken in 1916, showcases the enchanting allure and magnetic stage presence of these Hungarian-American vaudeville performers. The sisters, also known as Dolly Jenny, Dolly Rosie, Dolly Yansci, and Dolly Sisters, were renowned for their unique act that combined singing, dancing, and comedy. In this half-length portrait, Janka and Rosie are dressed in elegant caftans, adorned with intricate jewellery, and exude a confident and poised demeanor. Janka places her hands on her head, while Rosie strikes a more casual pose, with a thoughtful expression. The sisters' captivating apparel, reminiscent of the 1910s fashion trends, adds to their allure and charisma. This photograph, taken as a glass negative, is a testament to the rich heritage of performing arts and entertainment in America during the early 20th century. The image is a still representation of the sisters' dynamic and lively performances, which brought joy and laughter to audiences across the country. The Dolly Sisters' captivating stage presence and enduring legacy continue to inspire artists and performers, making this portrait a valuable addition to any collection of heritage art, photography, or performing arts.
