Their story
Arnold Genthe was a German-American photographer. As a portrait, dance and travel photographer, Genthe was one of the more prominent representatives of Pictorialism in the USA during his lifetime. After his death, he remained known primarily for his photographs of the devastated city of San Francisco after the 1906 earthquake and for his unique photographic impressions of the original Chinatown before the quake, which have photo-historical value.
