EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, taken by Arnold Genthe on December 27, 1917, captures the intense gaze and distinguished countenance of Judge Benjamin Barr Lindsey. The American judge and social reformer is best known for co-writing the controversial book "Marriage and Morals: A Study in Modern Life," which advocated for the concept of "companionate marriage." This idea suggested that young men and women should be allowed to live together in a trial marriage before committing to a lifelong union. The image of Judge Lindsey, with his thick mustache and serious expression, speaks to his unwavering conviction in his beliefs. The photograph was taken during the 1910s, a time of great social upheaval and change in America. Lindsey's progressive views on marriage and morality were not universally accepted, and his work sparked much debate and controversy. The portrait is a glass negative from the Arnold Genthe Collection at the Library of Congress. Genthe, a renowned photographer, captured many notable figures of the time, including politicians, artists, and intellectuals. This image of Judge Lindsey is a testament to the important role that photography plays in documenting history and preserving the legacies of influential individuals. The portrait also serves as a reminder of the ongoing conversation around marriage, relationships, and personal freedom that continues to evolve in our society today. The image is a powerful reminder of the courage and conviction of those who challenge societal norms and push for progress.
