EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by renowned American photography studio Harris & Ewing in 1917, captures a significant moment in international relations during the First World War. The image depicts a gathering of diplomats, politicians, and military personnel at the residence of Lars I.E. Larz Anderson in Washington D.C. The Belgian Mission to the United States is represented by a number of distinguished figures, including Major General Mathieu Leclercq, Commander of the Belgian Cavalry, and Emile Ernest de Cartier de Marchienne, a member of the Mission. Other attendees include M. Demertens, a Secretary of the Mission, and Baron Ludovic Moncheur. Among the American guests are Warren D. Robbins of the State Department, Captain Comly and Captain Cook of the U.S. Army, and Hugh Simons Gibson, also of the State Department. The group is gathered in the garden of Larz Anderson's home, with a few dogs adding a playful touch to the formal occasion. The photograph offers a glimpse into the diplomatic efforts of the time, as the Allied powers worked to strengthen their relationships and coordinate their responses to the ongoing conflict in Europe. The elegant attire and refined setting underscore the importance of these meetings, which would shape the course of international relations for years to come.
