EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of Anna May Wong, an iconic Chinese American actress who broke barriers in Hollywood during the early 20th century. Taken by renowned photographer Carl Van Vechten in 1935, this image showcases Wong's undeniable beauty and grace. Standing confidently against a backdrop adorned with elegant curtains, Wong holds a delicate ceramic cat in her hands. The feline figurine symbolizes both her love for pets and her affinity for artistry. Dressed impeccably in an exquisite gown, she exudes timeless elegance that transcends cultural boundaries. Anna May Wong was not only a talented actress but also a trailblazer who defied societal expectations. She paved the way for future generations of Asian actors and actresses to be seen on screen, challenging stereotypes and advocating for representation. This photograph is more than just a visual masterpiece; it encapsulates Wong's indomitable spirit as she navigated through an industry that often marginalized individuals like herself. It serves as a reminder of her enduring legacy and contributions to cinema. As part of The Granger Collection's vast archives, this print allows us to appreciate Anna May Wong's significant impact on both Chinese American culture and the world of entertainment.
