EDITORS COMMENTS
This collection of photographs, titled 'Travel views of Europe, between 1904 and 1938,' is a mesmerizing journey through time and space, captured by the skilled lens of Arnold Genthe. These images, part of the extensive Genthe Collection held at the Library of Congress, offer a unique perspective of Europe during the early 20th century. Genthe's camera captured the essence of Europe's rich heritage, from quaint alleyways and backstreets to grand buildings and bustling markets. In one image, we see a woman in traditional European attire, standing in front of a half-timbered house, while in another, chickens peck at grain in a narrow alleyway. These photographs offer a glimpse into the daily life of Europeans during this period, revealing the diverse range of housing conditions, from humble tub homes to elegant urban dwellings. The images also showcase the beauty and charm of Europe's animal life, with birds perched on telephone wires and chickens roaming free in the streets. The collection spans the early 1900s, including the 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s, providing a visual record of Europe during a time of great change. The images are preserved as nitrate negatives, adding to their historical significance and value. As an American photographer, Genthe's unique perspective offers a fresh take on European travel, revealing the continent through the eyes of an outsider. His work invites us to explore the history and culture of Europe in a way that is both personal and universal, transporting us back in time and across continents.
