EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the enchanting presence of Peggy Wood, an American actress, dramatist, and playwright, taken on August 27, 1917. The photograph, created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, showcases Wood in an elegant sitting position, with one hand casually placed on her hip and the other crossed at her knees. Her poised demeanor and direct gaze exude confidence and allure, as she looks intently at the camera. Wood's fashionable attire, a stylish dress with intricate detailing, is a testament to the fashion trends of the 1910s. The dress, with its high collar and long sleeves, is a classic example of ladieswear from the era, adding to the vintage charm of the image. The photograph was taken during a significant period in Wood's career, as she was gaining recognition for her acting skills and her contributions to the entertainment industry as a writer. Her expressive face and captivating posture convey the depth of her talent and the intensity of her passion for her craft. The portrait is a valuable addition to the vast collection of heritage art at the Library of Congress, providing a glimpse into the past and offering a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who left an indelible mark on American theatre and cinema.
