- Wilhelmina Stunick Rowley Studio Portrait c. 1910
- Description
- In this profile portrait from the Rowley Studio, Minnie Zdunek wears her pince-nez glasses as a badge of her literacy and modern intellect. This print uses a classic Edwardian silhouette to emphasize her sharp features and the refined "S-curve" of her posture. In an era when women were increasingly claiming space in the professional sphere, Minnie’s choice to be photographed in her spectacles is a deliberate statement of a focused and capable spirit.
