EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mrs. Graves" and created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in 1913, showcases the timeless elegance and allure of a woman from the early 20th century. The subject, Mrs. Graves, is depicted in profile, gazing directly at the camera with a confident and enchanting smile. Her outfit, a fashionable dress adorned with intricate beadwork and a delicate pearl necklace, is a testament to the opulence and sophistication of the era. The addition of a headband and earrings further accentuates her striking features and adds a touch of charm to the image. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the field of photography, captured this moment using glass negatives, which lends the photograph a unique texture and depth. The monochromatic color palette, with its contrasting shades of white and black, adds to the vintage feel and emphasizes the timeless quality of the image. This photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress, providing a glimpse into the fashion and style of the 1910s. The direct gaze of Mrs. Graves, combined with her elegant attire and accessories, makes for a captivating and enduring image that continues to captivate viewers today.
