Desha and Leah, 1921 August 19 - A Timeless Connection in the Roaring Twenties
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph by Arnold Genthe, sisters Desha and Leah Delteil, dressed in elegant, flowing apparel, share a moment of connection during a dance performance. The image, captured on August 19, 1921, transports us back to the vibrant and expressive era of the 1920s in America. Arnold Genthe, a renowned photographer of the 20th century, expertly captures the essence of the sisters' youthful energy and the richness of their Slovenian heritage. The sisters' clothing, with its intricate patterns and flowing lines, reflects the fashion trends of the time, while their joyful expressions and intertwined hands convey the deep bond between them. The location of the photograph is not explicitly stated, but the image exudes the atmosphere of a grand, ornate stage, suggesting a performance for an appreciative audience. The sisters' costumes, reminiscent of traditional Slovene attire, add to the sense of cultural heritage and pride. As we gaze at this image, we are reminded of the enduring power of art to transport us to another time and place. Desha and Leah's story of sisterhood, performance, and heritage continues to resonate, making this a cherished addition to the vast collection of the Library of Congress.
