EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait photograph, titled "Mrs. Velie, W.L." and created by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe in 1913, offers a glimpse into the past with its timeless beauty. The subject of the image, Mrs. Annie Flowerree Velie, gazes intently upwards, her expression conveying a sense of deep concentration or contemplation. Her hair, styled in an elegant updo, is adorned with a pearl earring and a pearl necklace, adding an air of sophistication and elegance to her appearance. The photograph was taken during the early 20th century, a time of great change and progress, and the image serves as a reminder of the heritage and history of that era. The use of a glass negative process adds to the vintage feel of the image, further enhancing its historical significance. Mrs. Velie's attire, while not visible in the photograph, is suggested by the folds of her blouse and the collar of her jacket, which can be seen peeking out from under the shawl that covers her shoulders. The contrast between the white collar and the dark background adds visual interest and balance to the image. The Library of Congress holds this precious piece of history in its vast collection, a testament to the enduring value of photography as an art form and a means of recording history. This portrait of Mrs. Velie is a poignant reminder of the concerns and preoccupations of the past, and serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that we continue to preserve and celebrate.
