EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mr. Thomas B. Wells," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on April 18, 1919. The image is part of Genthe's extensive collection held at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. Mr. Wells is depicted wearing a formal pinstripe suit, which was a popular choice for men's business attire during the 1910s in the United States. The high contrast of the black and white image accentuates the sharp lines of the pinstripes, creating a sense of sharpness and sophistication. The portrait was taken against a plain, dark background, allowing the subject's features and clothing to stand out. Mr. Wells' serious expression and direct gaze add to the formal and authoritative tone of the image. Arnold Genthe was known for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects, and this portrait of Mr. Wells is no exception. The photograph provides a glimpse into the fashion and style of the early 20th century, as well as a glimpse into the personality of the man himself. The location of the portrait is not specified, but the image exudes a sense of American heritage and tradition. The glass negative preserves the original details of the photograph, ensuring that the image remains as vibrant and clear as the day it was taken over a century ago.
