EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mrs. Henry A. Wise," was captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe on April 24, 1917. The image showcases a concerned and fashionable woman, Mrs. Wise, as she gazes directly at the camera with an air of sophistication. Dressed in a frilly, high-necked blouse with long sleeves and a full, voluminous skirt, Mrs. Wise's outfit is reminiscent of the classic ladieswear of the early 1910s. Her hair is styled in an intricate updo, with loose curls cascading down the sides and a center parting. The photograph was taken as a glass negative, resulting in the striking contrast between the white collar and cuffs and the dark background. This vintage image, held in the Library of Congress, is a testament to the concern for personal appearance and the fashion trends of the time. Mrs. Wise's direct gaze and timeless elegance continue to captivate viewers over a century later.
