EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "St. Denis, Ruth, 1913 Mar. 25," is a portrait of the renowned American modern dancer Ruth St. Denis. Taken by the acclaimed photographer Arnold Genthe, this image captures St. Denis in a moment of introspection and disapproval, as she gazes away from the camera with a discernible expression of disdainful contemplation. The photograph was taken during the 1910s, a time when St. Denis was at the height of her career as a pioneering figure in American modern dance. Dressed in an intricately designed Asian-inspired costume, St. Denis exudes an air of mystery and allure. Her long, flowing dress is adorned with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, reminiscent of the rich cultural heritage of Asia. A headband adorns her head, adding to the exotic and otherworldly quality of her appearance. The use of makeup and cosmetics further enhances the expressive nature of her facial features, adding depth and character to her visage. The photograph was taken in a studio setting, with a simple, plain background that allows St. Denis to be the focal point of the image. The use of a glass negative process adds to the vintage feel of the photograph, transporting us back in time to a bygone era. This powerful and evocative image is a testament to the enduring legacy of Ruth St. Denis as a trailblazing performer and a pioneer in the world of modern dance.
