Description Dancers Vernon and Irene Castle. Gelatin silver print.
Date 1910-1914. The couple met in 1910, and Irene Castle famously cut her hair in 1913 or 1914. The image was taken by an American photographer, so it was most likely taken in 1912 or 1913, after their return to the US from France in 1912.
