About this photograph
Arnold Genthe photographed a man identified as Mr. Kelekian in 1921. The portrait was made on a nitrate negative measuring five by seven inches.
Genthe worked in a soft-focus pictorialist style and maintained a studio in New York during this period, having moved from San Francisco in 1911. He continued working into the 1940s. The negative is now part of a large collection held by the Library of Congress.
The record does not give a first name or explain who Mr. Kelekian was.
