EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken in the 1930s by A-Smile A-Minute Photos, offers a timeless glimpse into the life of Theo Lane, a member of the esteemed Smith family. Encased in a meticulously crafted folder made of heavy cardstock, this hand-painted portrait showcases Lane's striking features and impeccable style. In this image, Lane exudes confidence as he dons a dark hat cocked to the left side and sports a plaid scarf underneath his overcoat. His choice of attire reflects both his personal taste and the fashion trends prevalent during that era. As an African American man living in America during this pivotal period in history, Theo Lane's portrait holds significant cultural significance. It serves as a testament to resilience and strength within the black community while also highlighting their contributions to society. Now housed within the prestigious National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC), part of Smithsonian Institution's collection, this gelatin silver print is not only an educational resource but also an embodiment of heritage art. Its presence within such scientific institutions ensures its preservation for future generations to appreciate.
