EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait photograph, titled "Edward Jewett" and created by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe between 1911 and 1942, offers a glimpse into the fashion and cultural landscape of the early 20th century. The image, part of the extensive Genthe Collection housed at the Library of Congress, captures the subject, Edward Jewett, in a thoughtful and introspective pose. Jewett's attire reflects the Bohemian spirit of the era, with a vest, dress shirt, and tie, paired with a casual jacket and a hat. The addition of a cigarette clenched between his fingers adds an air of noncholant sophistication. The backdrop of a fountain located in an unidentified country or city setting further emphasizes the sense of leisure and relaxation. Genthe's mastery of the nitrate negative process is evident in the high contrast and sharp detail of the image, which brings out the intricacies of Jewett's clothing and the texture of the fountain's water. This portrait, with its timeless composition and enduring appeal, serves as a reminder of the rich heritage of American photography and the fashion trends of the 1910s. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the field of photography, is known for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects and the world around him. This portrait of Edward Jewett is a testament to his skill and vision, and a valuable addition to the historical record of American culture and fashion.
