EDITORS COMMENTS
Allied Commission To U.S. At Mount Vernon: Groups At Tomb of Washington, 1917" is a historic photograph taken by the renowned American photography studio, Harris & Ewing. This image captures a significant moment in international relations during the First World War, as dignitaries from the British and French War Commissions gathered at the tomb of George Washington in Mount Vernon, Virginia. Mount Vernon, the historic estate of America's first President, served as a symbolic location for this meeting between the Allied nations. The photograph shows a group of men standing respectfully in front of Washington's mausoleum, some with their hands over their hearts, as they pay their respects to the deceased leader. Flags of the United States, Britain, and France can be seen flying high above the mansion and the surrounding buildings. The photograph was taken by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio. It is part of the Harris Ewing Collection, housed in the Library of Congress. The image is a testament to the strong alliance between the United States and its European counterparts during a pivotal moment in world history. The photograph also showcases the architectural beauty of Mount Vernon, which continues to draw visitors from around the world. The scene depicted in the photograph is a poignant reminder of the importance of diplomacy and international cooperation, even in the midst of war. The men in the photograph, dressed in formal attire, stand as a symbol of unity and respect for the legacy of George Washington, who is considered the father of his country. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of historical images, and a testament to the rich heritage of the United States and its role in international affairs.
