EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1914 and 1927, showcases the grace and poise of Marion Morgan, an accomplished dancer of the early 20th century. The image, created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, captures Morgan in a full-length pose, her arms raised above her head, poised in mid-gesture. The photograph, a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States, was taken during a performance, likely on a stage or in a studio setting. Morgan's expression is focused and determined, her body language conveying a sense of confidence and control. The photograph, taken in the 1910s, is a striking example of the era's performing arts scene. The monochromatic palette of the image adds to its timeless quality, with the contrast between the white of Morgan's flowing costume and the dark background accentuating her form. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the field of photography, captured this moment using glass negatives, a technique popular during the early 20th century. The resulting image is a still, yet dynamic representation of Morgan's artistry, a moment frozen in time that continues to captivate and inspire. This photograph, now part of the permanent collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the enduring legacy of both Marion Morgan and Arnold Genthe, two figures who left an indelible mark on the cultural landscape of the United States during the 20th century.
