EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "MARGARET GORMAN, 1921" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Margaret Gorman, hailing from Washington, D. C. , stands tall and proud on the sandy shores of Atlantic City, New Jersey. This image captures her beauty and grace as she became the very first Miss America. The photograph is transformed into a stunning work of art through the use of oil painting techniques. The delicate brushstrokes add depth and texture to this timeless piece from 1921. Margaret's elegant attire reflects the fashion trends of that era - an embodiment of early 20th-century American style. Her presence exudes confidence and poise as she represents not only herself but also women across the nation. This image transports us to a time known as the Roaring Twenties when society was experiencing profound social changes. It symbolizes empowerment for women who were breaking barriers and asserting their independence. Atlantic City's picturesque beach serves as a backdrop for this historic event - the birthplace of one of America's most prestigious beauty pageants: Miss America. Margaret Gorman's victory marked a turning point in pageantry history, forever shaping its future. Preserved by The Granger Collection in New York, this print allows us to admire Margaret Gorman's pioneering spirit while celebrating her contribution to women's empowerment during an iconic period in American history.
