EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the theatrical intensity of a live performance during the 1910s or 1920s, featuring the renowned American actress Margaret Anglin (1871-1961) in a dramatic moment. Anglin, dressed in a flowing, ornate costume, raises her arms above her head, her posture exuding confidence and emotion. Her co-stars, also dressed in period attire, look on with rapt attention, their expressions reflecting the depth of the scene. Arnold Genthe (1869-1942), a pioneering American photographer, captured this moment of raw emotion and artistry. Genthe's use of high contrast and sharp focus draws the viewer's attention to the actors and their performance, transporting us back in time to the world of live theatre during the early 20th century. The photograph, a nitrate negative, is part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress in Washington D.C., and is a testament to the enduring power of the performing arts and the role they play in shaping our cultural heritage. The image, which is likely to have been taken in the United States, is a reminder of the rich history of American theatre and the artists who brought stories to life on the stage during this period. The photograph is a unique and valuable piece of history, offering a glimpse into the world of live performance during the 1910s and 1920s, and the enduring talent and artistry of Margaret Anglin.
