EDITORS COMMENTS
This gelatin silver photo captures the essence of Ernest Truex, a prominent figure in the early 20th century. Taken between 1905 and 1940 by renowned photographer Jessie Tarbox Beals, this print showcases Truex in a relaxed setting, exuding an air of sophistication and charm. Dressed in a cozy sweater and knee-high socks, Truex is seated comfortably in a wicker armchair. With a magazine or newspaper resting on his lap, he appears engrossed in its contents. The backdrop of the photograph reveals a window adorned with lush plants on the sill, adding to the overall ambiance of tranquility. Truex's expression is enigmatic yet inviting; his eyes seem to hold stories untold. This image offers us a glimpse into his world - perhaps capturing him during moments of reflection or leisure amidst his busy life as an actor. Preserved within the collection of the New-York Historical Society, this photograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact. It transports us back to an era when photography was still evolving but already capable of capturing intimate details that reveal so much about individuals like Ernest Truex. As we admire this timeless piece captured by Beals' lens, we are reminded not only of Truex's legacy but also how photography can immortalize fleeting moments for generations to come.
