EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the playful and joyful spirit of Jenny Dolly's adopted daughters, Manzi and Klari, in the early 1930s. Jenny Dolly, a beloved figure in the jazz world of the 1920s and beyond, opened her heart and home to these two sisters, providing them with a nurturing environment and a sense of family. Manzi, the elder of the two, is seen here with a mischievous grin on her face, her eyes sparkling with mischief. She wears a simple white blouse and a floral headband, her dark curly hair cascading down her shoulders. Klari, the younger sister, sits beside her, her expression one of pure delight. She is dressed in a red dress with white polka dots, her hair styled in tight curls. The sisters' connection is palpable in this image, their bodies leaning towards each other, their hands touching. The photograph captures a moment of sisterly love and companionship, a testament to the bond that Jenny Dolly helped to foster between them. The 1920s and 30s were a time of great change and upheaval, and for Manzi and Klari, being adopted by Jenny Dolly meant a chance at a better life. This photograph serves as a reminder of the power of love and compassion, and the impact that one person can have on the lives of others.
