EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "British Commission to U.S. - Col. Herron, 1917" by Harris & Ewing, captures a moment in history during the First World War. The image features Colonel Herron, a British military officer, standing confidently at the top of a grand staircase in the Library of Congress, Washington D.C. He is dressed in full military uniform, complete with a sword at his side and a walking stick in his right hand. The colonel's stern expression and posture convey a sense of determination and resolve. The Library of Congress, with its ornate doors and intricate staircase, serves as an impressive backdrop to this historic moment. The glass negatives of this photograph were taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896. The studio was known for its high-quality work and became a leading supplier of photographs to Congress. This photograph is a testament to the significant role played by the British military during World War I and the important diplomatic relations between Britain and the United States. The image also showcases the fashion of the time, with the colonel's military uniform and the elegant staircase adding to the overall aesthetic appeal of the photograph.
