Camp Meade, Maryland - Winter Views, 1917: A Glimpse into the Lives of Soldiers during the First World War This evocative photograph, titled 'Camp Meade, Maryland - Winter Views, 1917,' captures a moment in time during the First World War, as soldiers of the United States Army found respite from their duties in the harsh winter conditions at Camp Meade, Maryland. Taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, the image offers a poignant glimpse into the daily life of the soldiers stationed there. The photograph features a group of men, dressed in their uniforms, gathered around a table inside a dormitory or barracks. The room is filled with simple wooden furniture, including beds and a table with a drinking vessel. Some soldiers are lying down, resting, while others are engaged in conversation or reading letters from home. The scene is bathed in the soft, natural light filtering in from the windows, creating an intimate and introspective atmosphere. The photograph is an important historical document, offering a glimpse into the living conditions of the soldiers during the war. It also serves as a reminder of the camaraderie and community that existed among the men, as they shared the challenges and hardships of military life. The image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which documents the social, political, and cultural history of the United States during the early 20th century. The photographers, George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, were prominent figures in the Washington, D.C. photography scene during the 1910s. Their studio, Harris Ewing Inc., was known for producing high-quality photographs for commercial and editorial use. However, this image, like many others in their collection, offers a more personal and introspective look into the lives of ordinary people during a significant historical period.
