Portrait of Clarence H. White (1871-1925), c. 1898. A native of Newark, Ohio, Spencer was a talented photographer who received national and international recognition for her work created in the prevailing Pictorial style. As a founder of the Newark Camera Club, she met and encouraged the young photographer Clarence White and then studied under him, assimilating his ability to render portraits with an innate gentleness. In this image, Spencer skillfully orchestrated the composition and captured the subtle effects of natural light. She looked to her teachers early work when applying soft graphite strokes to the finished photograph for structural emphasis and tonal shading.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print, titled "Portrait of Clarence H. White (1871-1925), c. 1898" was created by the talented American photographer Ema Spencer in the late 19th century. Known for her exceptional work in the prevailing Pictorial style, Spencer gained both national and international recognition for her artistic prowess. Spencer's connection with Clarence White, a renowned young photographer at that time, proved to be pivotal in shaping her own skills. As a founder of the Newark Camera Club, she not only met but also encouraged White's talent before becoming his student herself. Under his guidance, she assimilated his remarkable ability to capture portraits with an inherent gentleness. In this particular image, Spencer demonstrates her mastery over composition and skillfully captures the delicate play of natural light on her subject's face. Drawing inspiration from White's earlier works, she applies soft graphite strokes to enhance structural emphasis and tonal shading within the finished photograph. The resulting portrait is nothing short of charming as it celebrates the simple joys found in unhurried living—depicting a serene moment where one can indulge in reading a book bathed in warm sunlight within their cozy room. Preserved as a platinum print with graphite detailing by Heritage Art/Heritage Images and housed at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this exquisite piece serves as a testament to Ema Spencer's artistry and Clarence H. White's influence on her photographic journey during America's vibrant cultural landscape at that time.
