EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Sarah Mildred and Pupils, 1932 June 5," captures the spirit of playful exuberance as Sarah Mildred, a dance instructor, leads her pupils in a dance performance on the rocky shoreline. The image, created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, was taken during the 1930s in the United States. Sarah Mildred, with her fair blonde hair and poised posture, stands at the center, her arms raised and gesturing to guide her young students. The girls, all barefoot and dressed in simple, white outfits, follow her lead with their eyes closed, their bodies moving in unison as they dance on the uneven, rocky terrain. The backdrop of the sea adds a sense of tranquility and timelessness to the scene. The photograph is a testament to the power of dance as a means of expression and connection, as well as the joy and freedom that comes with childhood. The image is a full-length, still shot taken with a nitrate negative, and is part of the vast collection of heritage art housed in the Library of Congress. Arnold Genthe, a German-American photographer, was known for his innovative and artistic approach to photography, and this image is a prime example of his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time. The contrast between the girls' delicate, bare feet and the rugged, textured rocks beneath them adds depth and visual interest to the image, making it a captivating and enduring work of art.
