EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of feminine allure and the spirit of the early 20th century. The young woman in the image, dressed in a scantily clad pale blue dress, seductively holds a fan against her bare back, inviting the viewer to imagine the warmth of her skin beneath. With her blonde hair cascading down her shoulders, she exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. The photograph, titled "Female Type / Fan C1915," is a prime example of the popular trend of the time, where women posed provocatively to appeal to the male gaze. The use of the fan as a prop was a common motif in the art and photography of the era, symbolizing both seduction and protection from the heat. The image, believed to have been taken circa 1915, offers a glimpse into the past and the societal norms of the time. Women's fashion during this period was characterized by revealing necklines, short skirts, and an emphasis on the female form. This photograph, in particular, showcases the trend of revealing bare skin, which was considered daring and provocative for the time. Despite the controversy surrounding such images, they remain an important part of history, offering insight into the cultural and social norms of the past. This photograph, with its timeless beauty and allure, continues to captivate and intrigue viewers today, transporting us back to a bygone era.
