EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "St. Denis, Ruth, 1927 July or Aug," was taken by the renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. The image captures Ruth St. Denis, an influential figure in the world of performing arts, in a serene moment of reflection. The scene is set in an outdoor environment, with the dancer standing by the edge of a tranquil pond or pool, her arms outstretched as if in a dance pose. The reflection of the woman and her surroundings on the water's surface adds an intriguing layer to the image, enhancing its visual appeal. Ruth St. Denis was a pioneering figure in American modern dance, known for her innovative and theatrical performances. She is depicted here in a full-length dress, which adds to the vintage charm of the photograph. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 1910s and the enduring influence of the arts. The photograph is part of the extensive collection of nitrate negatives at the Library of Congress, a national treasure trove of historical and artistic significance. Arnold Genthe's mastery of photography is evident in this stunning image, which transports us to a bygone era and offers a glimpse into the world of a legendary performer.
