EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1896 and 1942, captures the essence of American childhood during the 1900s. The unidentified child, dressed in corduroy knickerbockers and a cardigan, stands outdoors, likely in a rural setting, surrounded by nature. The use of a nitrate negative adds to the image's nostalgic charm, transporting us back in time. Arnold Genthe, a renowned American photographer, captured this moment in his collection. Genthe's work is known for its documentation of everyday life in the United States during the early 20th century. This full-length portrait showcases the child's simple yet stylish attire, which was popular during the 1910s and 1920s. The corduroy knickerbockers and cardigan, made of sturdy fabric, were ideal for country living and playful activities. The image's location remains a mystery, but the child's carefree expression and the natural setting suggest a simpler time in American history. The use of color in the image is limited to the child's clothing and the surrounding foliage, making the black and white tones even more striking. This photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of American history and the enduring appeal of childhood innocence.
