EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the defiant spirit of Ruth Altman, an American actress and singer, in 1928. Dressed in a stylish, form-fitting dress with a bold, geometric pattern, Altman exudes confidence and charisma as she gestures with a hand on her hip. The exterior setting, with its lush greenery and open sky, adds to the sense of freedom and individuality. Arnold Genthe, a renowned photographer of the 20th century, expertly captured the essence of the 1920s through his art. This image, with its high contrast and sharp detail, showcases the fashion trends of the era, from the intricate hairstyles to the unique clothing designs. Altman's career spanned various fields, including acting and singing, and she was known for her strong stage presence and captivating voice. The portrait reflects her artistic and professional accomplishments, as well as her youthful vitality. This vintage photograph, with its rich history and cultural significance, is a valuable addition to any collection of American heritage art. The Library of Congress holds the original nitrate negative, preserving this important piece of 20th century history for future generations to appreciate.
