Captured Elegance - Dovie Wright Jordan, a Timeless Beauty
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photographic postcard from around 1917, we are introduced to the enchanting presence of Dovie Wright Jordan. Standing gracefully beside a simple wooden chair, she exudes an air of timeless elegance that transcends generations. Dressed impeccably in her fashionable attire, Dovie's style is a testament to the sophistication of the era. A large embellished floral hat adorns her head, perfectly complementing her high-necked blouse and strand of pearls. Her long tailored jacket and belted skirt accentuate her slender figure with grace and poise. With eyes fixed towards the right side of the viewer, there is an intriguing sense of mystery in Dovie's gaze. Perhaps she gazes at something or someone beyond our sight, leaving us curious about what captivates her attention. The details on this postcard provide additional insight into its origin. Embossed text at the bottom left reveals it was produced by Maxwell on Lawton Avenue in St. Louis. The reverse side features standard elements for correspondence - "POST CARD" across the top left corner along with spaces for writing messages and addressing recipients. Although little is known about the photographer behind this remarkable image or their intentions when capturing it, one thing remains certain – Dovie Wright Jordan's beauty shines through time as a symbol of grace and refinement.
