EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the enchanting young actress Adele Ray in a moment of relaxed introspection, as she reclines on a plush chair with a thoughtful expression on her face. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe on February 1, 1916, this black and white image showcases Adele's striking features, including her long, braided hair that cascades down her back, and her elegant, strapless dress. The glass negative photograph, which is part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, exudes an air of timeless charm and allure. Born in the United States during the early 20th century, Adele Ray was a rising star in the American entertainment industry. Her direct gaze and confident posture convey a sense of self-assuredness and poise, while her hands resting behind her head add an element of casual ease to the portrait. The monochromatic color palette of the photograph, with its contrasting shades of white and black, further emphasizes the simplicity and elegance of the scene. This image not only serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of vintage fashion and the art of portrait photography but also offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of America during the 1910s. With her long, flowing hair and striking, confident demeanor, Adele Ray embodies the spirit of a young woman who is both beautiful and bold, making this portrait a true masterpiece of the era.
