Additional Information

Noted lyrical poet and playwright Edna St. Vincent Millay is pictured here with noted literary critic of the time Edmund Wilson and her husband in front of their iconic Greenwich Village home in 1923 at the height of her fame and success. Millay was an essential early feminist writer, and her work is celebrated for its vision, tone, and subject matter, which was well ahead of its time. Millay won the Pulitzer Prize in Poetry in 1923 for her work "The Ballad of the Harp-Weaver" and was quickly becoming one of the most respected female authors of the early twentieth century.

This photograph remains an enduring image of Millay as her career reached its heights and her recognition grew on both the national and international literary scene. She was even called "the greatest woman poet since Sappho" by literary critic Harriett Monroe. Following their time in Greenwich Village, Millay and her husband, Eugen Van Boissevain, purchased the Steepletop home near Austerlitz, New York; the property was formerly a 635-acre blueberry farm. Millay was involved in politics and was arrested in 1927 along with other literary figures for protests against the impending executions of Italian-American anarchists Sacco and Vanzetti in a case that drew international attention.

This photograph remains an enduring image of Millay and an authentic piece of American photographic history. The distinctive style and classic aesthetic immediately transport the viewer back in time, creating a link to the author and American history with a single image.
