EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic moment as Arthur James Balfour, 1st Earl of Balfour, M.P, O.M, awaits his arrival in the United States as the Head of the British Commission in 1917. The image, created by renowned photographers Harris & Ewing, depicts Balfour standing confidently, dressed in a formal suit and top hat, surrounded by key American diplomats and politicians of the time. To his left, Cecil Spring-Rice, the British Ambassador to the United States, stands with a warm smile. To his right, we find Secretary of State Robert Lansing, Assistant Secretary of State Frank L. Polk, and Assistant Secretary of the Navy William Phillips. The group is gathered in a grand room, with large windows revealing an expansive view of the American landscape beyond. The photograph is a testament to the diplomatic efforts between Britain and the United States during the first World War, and a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and politics of the 1910s. The Harris & Ewing Collection, now part of the Library of Congress, holds countless treasures like this one, offering valuable insights into the past.
