EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Frick, Helen, Miss," was taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on October 30, 1917. The image captures a young and elegant Helen Clay Frick, an heiress and philanthropist, as she gazes directly at the camera with a confident and poised expression. Dressed in fashionable clothing of the era, Frick wears an elegant dress with a high neckline and long sleeves, accessorized with a simple yet sophisticated hairstyle. The photograph was taken using glass negatives, a common technique during the early 20th century. Helen Clay Frick was the only child of industrialist Henry Clay Frick and Adelaide Childs Frick. She became an influential figure in American society through her philanthropic efforts, particularly in the areas of education and art. The portrait serves as a testament to her refined taste and the elegance of the era. This photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of America during the 1910s. The image is a still, timeless representation of the fashion trends and societal norms of the time, providing a glimpse into the past and offering a connection to history.
