EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the reverent and thoughtful gaze of Reverend Gerald Stanley Lee, an American clergyman and author, in February 1918. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image showcases Reverend Lee dressed in formal attire, including a dark suit, white shirt, waistcoat, and collar, which were typical of the professional and religious dress codes of the time. The full-length photograph, taken as a glass negative, offers a glimpse into the fashion trends and societal expectations of the 1910s in the United States. Reverend Lee's occupation as a clergyman and author is evident in his serious demeanor and the somber setting of the photograph. The portrait is a testament to the importance of religious leaders and their role in shaping the moral and spiritual fabric of American society during this period. The image is part of Arnold Genthe's extensive collection held at the Library of Congress, which documents the people, places, and events of the United States throughout the 20th century. The portrait's monochromatic color palette adds to its timeless and classic appeal, making it an essential addition to any collection of American heritage art or historical photography. The image invites viewers to reflect on the role of religion and spirituality in American life during the 1910s and beyond.
