EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait photograph, titled "Ethel Mandel Dancers," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on January 27, 1934. The image is a stunning group portrait of a dynamic group of female dancers, their graceful forms clad in chiffon, poised in mid-performance. The photograph was taken during the 1930s, a time of great social and artistic change in the United States. Arnold Genthe, a pioneering figure in American photography, is known for his innovative use of light and shadow, and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with remarkable clarity. In this image, he masterfully conveys the energy and movement of the dancers, their ethereal figures seemingly suspended in time and space. The Ethel Mandel Dancers were a popular dance troupe during the 1930s, known for their innovative choreography and captivating performances. The group's diverse membership reflected the rich cultural tapestry of America during this period, with dancers of various races and ethnicities coming together to create a unique and dynamic artistic expression. This photograph is an important part of the Arnold Genthe Collection held at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. It is a testament to the power of dance as an art form, and to the enduring legacy of Arnold Genthe as a master photographer. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of American heritage art, and a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the human experience.
