EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the enigmatic young woman, Dolly Harrison, on July 23, 1915. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image is a testament to the fashion and social norms of the early 20th century in America. Dolly's long, flowing hair is styled in an intricate do, framing her delicate features and accentuating her youthful beauty. She wears a high-necked blouse with a fitted waist and a full, voluminous skirt, typical of the modest fashion trends of the time. The setting of the photograph is discreet and understated, with Dolly looking down in a moment of apparent shame or introspection. The use of a glass negative process adds to the vintage feel of the image, transporting us back to a bygone era. The portrait is part of the extensive collection of Arnold Genthe's works at the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of American heritage art and cultural history. The image is a poignant reminder of the social conventions and expectations of the time, as well as the enduring allure of classic fashion and timeless beauty. Dolly's image, with its hauntingly beautiful composition and thoughtful expression, continues to captivate and inspire viewers over a century after it was first captured by Genthe's lens.
