EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures Nina Wilcox Putnam, an accomplished author, dramatist, and screenwriter, in the early 1910s. Dressed in a frilly, high-collared blouse with a voluminous, ruffled sleeve and a long, flowing skirt, Putnam exudes an air of sophistication and elegance. Her hair is styled in an intricate updo, adorned with a delicate earring and a necklace, adding to her refined appearance. Arnold Genthe, a renowned photographer of the 20th century, captured this image using a glass negative process. At the time, Genthe was making a name for himself in the film industry, and his expertise in cinematography is evident in this portrait. The image's sharp contrast between the white collar and the dark background draws the viewer's attention to Putnam's face, which conveys a sense of intelligence and creativity. Putnam was a prolific writer, penning novels, plays, and screenplays. Her diverse body of work reflects her versatility and adaptability to different mediums. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a woman who defied the conventions of her time and made significant contributions to the literary and artistic worlds. The Library of Congress holds this precious piece of heritage art, a testament to the rich history of American culture and the enduring legacy of both Putnam and Genthe.
