EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this image from the Movie set for a Western, captured between 1896 and 1942 by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe. The black and white nitrate negative transports us back in time to the 19th and early 20th centuries when the Wild West was a popular subject in American cinema. The scene unfolds on a dusty, sun-scorched location, where the crew is busy preparing for the day's filming. In the foreground, an actress, dressed in authentic cowgirl attire, holds a handgun at the ready, her determined expression a testament to her character's grit and resilience. Her unusual leather armlets and intricately designed belt add to her allure, reflecting the unique fashion trends of the era. A cowboy, donning a classic Stetson hat and cowhide vest, stands nearby, his eyes fixed on the action. A sheriff, identifiable by his badge, keeps a watchful eye over the proceedings, ensuring order on set. The crew members, dressed in period clothing, work diligently, setting up cameras and props. This behind-the-scenes glimpse into the film industry offers a fascinating insight into the making of a Western during the 1890s, 1900s, 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s. The image is a valuable addition to the Arnold Genthe Collection at the Library of Congress, showcasing the rich heritage of American cinema and its enduring appeal.
