EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the essence of the Columbus Memorial unveiling parade in Washington, D.C., in 1912. Designed by renowned American sculptor Lorado Taft, the Columbus Memorial, also known as the Columbus Fountain, was a source of great pride and patriotism for the American people. In this image, US Navy sailors proudly march in formation as part of the festivities, their flags snapping in the wind. The sailors' uniforms glisten in the sun, and their determined expressions convey the sense of unity and celebration that filled the air that day. The Columbus Memorial was a controversial figure due to the controversial legacy of Christopher Columbus, but for many Americans, it represented the country's rich heritage and the spirit of exploration and discovery. This photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing, is a testament to the excitement and energy of the occasion, and a reminder of the enduring power of art and history to bring people together.
