EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "American University Training Camp - Misc. Views, 1917," is a fascinating glimpse into history, captured by the renowned photography studio of Harris & Ewing. The image portrays the American University campus in Washington, D.C., transformed into a military training ground during World War I. The image showcases a collection of tents pitched on the university grounds, with a grand building standing proudly in the background. The building, likely a university structure, adds an air of academic tradition amidst the military preparations. Tents of various sizes can be seen arranged in neat rows, suggesting a well-organized encampment. The photograph, taken by an unidentified photographer from Harris & Ewing, offers a unique perspective of the United States' wartime efforts during the early 20th century. The company, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze (later married as Ewing Newcombe), was a leading photographic studio in the nation's capital during this period. This image, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, provides a valuable record of a significant moment in American history. The photograph's composition, with its balanced arrangement of tents and the building, offers a captivating view that transports us back in time to the United States' involvement in the First World War.
