EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait photograph, titled "Lucille," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on August 15, 1917. The image, a stunning example of 20th-century fashion and art, showcases a young woman named Lucille, dressed in an elegant full-length gown. The dress, made of satin fabric, is adorned with intricate beadwork, embroidery, and pearls, creating a mesmerizing textural effect. The woman is depicted standing still, her right hand delicately gesturing towards her waist, adding a sense of grace and poise to the image. Arnold Genthe, known for his mastery of glass negatives, expertly captured the details of the dress and the woman's expressive features in this black and white portrait. The image, a treasure from the 1910s in the United States, is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, a testament to the enduring beauty and historical significance of this photograph. The dress, with its timeless design and exquisite craftsmanship, is a reminder of the rich heritage of apparel and textiles in American history. This still image, a true work of art, continues to captivate and inspire viewers with its timeless elegance and charm.
