EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing in 1917, captures the distinguished figure of Arch. Wilkinson Shaw, an American entrepreneur, publisher, and management theorist from Chicago. Dressed in formal attire, Shaw exudes confidence and success as he gazes directly at the camera. His crisp white shirt, dark suit, and striped tie are accessorized with a fashionable straw boater hat, a popular choice for men of the era. Architecturally trained, Shaw made a name for himself in various industries, including apparel and publishing. He served as the president of the National Dry Goods Association and was a respected editor and publisher, known for his insightful articles on management and business practices. The photograph, taken as part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the fashion and style of the early 20th century. The image is a full-length portrait, capturing Shaw's entire figure and the details of his clothing. The glass negative process used by Harris & Ewing results in exceptional clarity and contrast, making this photograph a valuable historical artifact. The photograph's location is not specified, but Shaw's professional accomplishments and impeccable appearance suggest a setting befitting his status as a successful businessman and thought leader. This image, taken during the 1910s, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and the evolution of American business and fashion.
