EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mr. D.M. Milton" and dated December 23, 1918, captures the determined and serious expression of a young American sailor named D.M. Milton. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, this glass negative image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the United States Navy during the First World War. The sailor, dressed in his full naval uniform, exudes a sense of pride and maturity beyond his years. The crisp lines of his uniform, complete with cap, collar, and stripes, stand out against the dark background, drawing the viewer's attention to the subject. The photograph was taken during a time of great upheaval and change, as the United States played a pivotal role in naval warfare and the eventual defeat of the Central Powers. The image is part of the extensive Arnold Genthe Collection held at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. Genthe, a German-American photographer, is known for his unique perspective on American life during the early 20th century. His work, which includes portraits, landscapes, and street scenes, offers a valuable insight into the fashion, culture, and social issues of the time. This photograph of Mr. D.M. Milton is a powerful representation of the young men who answered the call to duty during the First World War. It serves as a reminder of the courage and resilience of the United States Navy during a time of great conflict and change. The image is a valuable addition to the heritage of American history and a testament to the enduring legacy of Arnold Genthe's work.
