[Man with Side Whiskers], 1870s-80s - A Glimpse into 19th Century American Masculinity
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken by Frederick Gutekunst in the late 19th century, offers a fascinating snapshot of an unidentified man sporting impressive side whiskers. The subject's facial hair, commonly referred to as mutton chop sideburns or simply whiskers, was a popular style among men during this era. The albumen silver print showcases intricate details and textures that bring the image to life. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the man's face, emphasizing his strong jawline and prominent features. His piercing gaze captures our attention, inviting us to ponder about his thoughts and experiences in the United States during this transformative period. Gutekunst's mastery behind the lens is evident in this portrait. He skillfully captures not only the physical appearance of his subject but also hints at his personality through subtle nuances. This photograph serves as a testament to Gutekunst's talent as a photographer who sought to immortalize individuals from all walks of life. As we admire this remarkable piece of heritage art now housed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, we are transported back in time – witnessing both personal history and societal norms that shaped America during its formative years. It reminds us that every individual has their own story waiting patiently for discovery within these timeless images captured by talented artists like Frederick Gutek
