EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Fritz Reuter Leiber Sr., an American Shakespearean stage actor, in costume during a theatrical performance in October 1919. The image, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, showcases Leiber's intense and focused expression as he dons a period costume, transporting us back in time to the world of classical theater. The image is part of the extensive Genthe Collection held at the Library of Congress, a testament to the rich heritage of American entertainment history. The photograph's glass negative format adds an additional layer of historical significance, as it preserves intricate details and textures that might otherwise be lost to the passage of time. Leiber's powerful presence on stage is palpable in this image, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of American theater and the remarkable actors who brought Shakespeare's works to life for generations of audiences.
