EDITORS COMMENTS
This black-and-white photograph captures the essence of friendship and fashion in the early 20th century. Four young women are depicted sitting on the floor, leaning against a beautifully adorned sofa draped with a fringed, patterned rug. Each woman exudes her unique style and personality through her attire. The woman on the left showcases an elegant kimono-style robe layered over her garments, adding an exotic touch to her ensemble. In the center, another lady dons a light-colored sash-front dress or blouse paired with a skirt, radiating grace and sophistication. The third woman captivates with her sleeveless light-colored dress that perfectly complements her youthful charm. Meanwhile, the fourth woman stands out with a scarf or headwrap adorning her head while wearing a dark colored dress. Her hand gently lifts the hemline to reveal stylish shoes underneath. Soft waves elegantly frame the faces of two women at the center of this delightful group portrait. All four friends share genuine smiles as they gaze directly into the camera lens, emanating happiness and camaraderie. In the background lies yet another inviting sofa adorned with several pillows. This remarkable photographic print not only captures these women's individuality but also serves as a testament to their shared heritage and cultural significance within African American history. Preserved by unknown hands from decades past, this image now finds its place among treasured artifacts at The National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC), allowing us to glimpse into their lives during this transformative era in America's history.
