EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the elegance and sophistication of Miss Jean Parke in the early 1910s. Taken on April 20, 1914 by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image showcases Jean's impeccable fashion sense as she dons a chic dress with a corsage, a fur coat draped over her arms, and a muff for added warmth. Her hair is styled in an intricate updo, adorned with a delicate headpiece, and she gazes away from the camera with a thoughtful expression. The backdrop of the photograph is simple, with a plain wall serving as the only distraction from the subject's captivating presence. The use of natural light and the crisp contrast between the white fur and the dark dress create a striking visual effect. This portrait is a testament to the fashion trends of the time, with the combination of a dress and coat being a popular choice for women during the early 1910s. The inclusion of a corsage and muff adds to the overall elegance of the outfit, making it a perfect representation of the country's fashion scene during the era. The image is a glass negative, taken by Arnold Genthe, who was known for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. The portrait is now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical significance and artistic merit.
