About this piece
Original black and white snapshot, silver-gelatin print, from the 1920s featuring two women posed outdoors in drop-waist dresses, long beaded necklaces, and bobbed/finger-waved hair typical of Jazz Age flapper style. The women stand on a lawn in front of a house with columns, trees visible in the background. The photo shows edge wear, a corner tear, and creasing consistent with age.
