EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Lee, Helen, Mrs., September 16, 1914," was taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. The image captures a young, elegant woman named Helen Lee, who gazes directly at the camera with a warm and inviting smile. The photograph was taken during the early 1910s, a time when fashion was undergoing significant changes. Helen's attire reflects the era's fashion trends, with a high-necked blouse and a voluminous netted skirt that flows gracefully around her figure. The intricate detailing of the netting adds texture and depth to the image, while the crisp white collar and cuffs contrast beautifully with the dark background. Helen's hair is styled in an intricate updo, with delicate curls framing her face and cascading down her back. The photograph was taken using a glass negative process, which allowed for exceptional detail and clarity. The use of black and white adds a timeless quality to the image, making it a stunning representation of the past. The Library of Congress holds this photograph as part of its vast collection of heritage art, and it continues to inspire and captivate viewers with its beauty and historical significance. The direct gaze of the subject, Helen Lee, draws the viewer in and invites them to connect with her on a personal level. The image is a testament to the power of photography to preserve memories and transport us to another time and place.
