EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking black and white portrait photograph taken by Arnold Genthe in 1915, Charles W. Brackett, a prominent figure in the early American film industry, gazes directly at the camera with a confident and serious expression. Brackett, who was born in the United States in 1892, wears a formal suit and tie, accessorized with a notebook and pen in his hand, suggesting his occupation as a screenwriter or film producer. His hair is parted in the middle, with a centre or middle parting being a popular hairstyle during the 1910s. Brackett's attire and accessories reflect the formal dress code of the time, as well as the growing importance of the film industry in American culture. The photograph was taken using glass negatives, a common technique during the early 20th century. The image is a testament to the heritage art of portrait photography and the evolution of fashion and style during this period. Brackett's direct gaze and strong posture convey a sense of determination and ambition, making this portrait a valuable addition to any collection of American history or film industry memorabilia. The photograph is now housed in the Library of Congress, a national library located in Washington D.C., which holds an extensive collection of historical and cultural materials, including photographs, manuscripts, prints, recordings, and moving images. This portrait of Charles W. Brackett by Arnold Genthe is a significant representation of the people and professions that shaped the early history of American cinema.
