EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mrs. Whealy" and created by renowned 20th century photographer Arnold Genthe in 1915, showcases the timeless beauty and charm of a cheerful, chubby woman in her prime. The image, held in the prestigious Library of Congress, is a glass negative that has stood the test of time, retaining its intricate details and textures. Mrs. Whealy's profile is framed by a delicate, intricate hairstyle that is elegantly pulled back and adorned with a pearl necklace, adding an air of sophistication and grace to her image. Her hair, styled in soft waves, cascades down her back, contrasting with the crisp, white collar of her blouse. Her expressive, smiling face exudes a sense of warmth and happiness, inviting the viewer to connect with her on a personal level. The concept of this portrait transcends the boundaries of time, as the image captures the essence of a woman who embodies the spirit of the 1910s. The contrast between the white and black tones creates a striking visual effect, highlighting the intricacies of her features and the delicate details of her jewelry. The heritage art of portrait photography is beautifully represented in this still image, providing a glimpse into the past and offering a reminder of the enduring power of a well-captured moment. This photograph is a testament to the artistry of Arnold Genthe, who masterfully captured the essence of a woman's beauty and personality in a single image. It is a treasure in the vast collection of the Library of Congress, a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us today.
