EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the elegant and stylish couple, Mrs. and Mr. Charles Dana Gibson, at the Illustrators Ball in New York City in 1916. Charles Dana Gibson (1867-1944) was a renowned American illustrator, best known for creating the iconic Gibson Girl, a symbol of feminine beauty and grace during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In this portrait, Gibson is dapperly dressed in a tuxedo, while his wife, Irene Langhorne, looks radiant in an intricately beaded gown. Langhorne, who was the sister of Nancy Astor, the first female Member of Parliament in Britain, adds an air of sophistication and high society to the image. The Illustrators Ball was an annual event that brought together the most talented and influential artists and illustrators of the time. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of the creative elite during the Roaring Twenties, a period of cultural and artistic innovation. The Gibsons' marriage was a source of inspiration for many of Gibson's illustrations, and their relationship is said to have influenced the depiction of the Gibson Girl as a strong, independent, and stylish woman. This photograph is a testament to their enduring love and the impact they had on American culture and art history.
