EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Gladys Ingalls, Miss," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on May 15, 1912. The image showcases a young woman named Gladys, elegantly seated with a demure expression. She is dressed in fashionable clothing of the early 1910s, including a high-necked blouse with a lace collar, a fitted bodice, and a full, voluminous skirt. Her hair is styled in an intricate bun, held in place with bobby pins or hairpins, and adorned with a delicate headband. The photograph was taken during the 20th century, a time of significant change in American fashion. The country was experiencing the height of the Progressive Era, and women's fashion reflected the changing times. The Edwardian era, which emphasized a feminine silhouette, was giving way to the more modern, streamlined styles of the 1910s. Gladys's attire and hairstyle are reminiscent of the transitional period between these two fashion eras. Her dress, with its high waistline and full skirt, is typical of the Edwardian era, while her blouse and headband are more in line with the modern trends of the 1910s. The photograph is a beautiful example of the art of portrait photography during this era. The use of black and white film adds to the timeless quality of the image, making it a valuable addition to any collection of vintage photography. The portrait was taken using glass negatives, a technique that was popular during this time, and is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress.
