EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait photograph, titled "Lentz, Lu, Miss, with Buzzer the cat," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on April 17, 1914. The black and white image showcases Lu Lentz, a young woman of the early 20th century, seated comfortably in a chair with her beloved feline companion, Buzzer, nestled in her lap. Lu gazes directly at the camera with a warm and affectionate expression, while Buzzer returns her gaze with a curious and playful look. Lu's elegant attire, consisting of a high-necked blouse and a long, flowing dress, is adorned with intricate detailing and a pearl necklace, adding to the refined and timeless quality of the image. The photograph was taken during the 1910s, a decade marked by significant social and cultural changes in America. The location of the photograph is not known, but the image exudes a sense of tranquility and intimacy, as if capturing a private moment in time. The use of a glass negative process further adds to the vintage aesthetic, making this photograph a valuable piece of heritage art and a fascinating glimpse into the past. The image of Lu and Buzzer cuddling and looking into each other's eyes has stood the test of time, continuing to evoke feelings of affection and nostalgia, and serves as a reminder of the enduring bond between humans and animals.
