EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Duncan, Augustin, Mr. in costume, between 1915 and 1921," is a stunning work of art created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe. The image captures the enigmatic and charismatic presence of Augustin Duncan, an actor who graced the silver screen during the 1910s and 1920s in the United States. Duncan is depicted in this half-length portrait, standing confidently in a studio setting, dressed in an elegant costume that speaks to the era of cinematography and performing arts. The image, which is part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the concept of the thespian's art and the transformative power of costume. The glass negative, which dates back to the early 20th century, is a beautiful example of Genthe's mastery of the medium. The image, with its intriguing contrasts and tonal range, invites the viewer to explore the depth and complexity of Duncan's character. The photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the world of early American cinema and the men who brought stories to life on the big screen. It is a reminder of the rich heritage of the performing arts and the enduring allure of the moving picture. Whether admired for its artistic merit or its historical significance, this image of Augustin Duncan in costume is a true treasure of the 1910s and 1920s.
