EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photograph by Harris & Ewing, titled "Curtiss Airplane, Tests of Curtiss Plane For Army - Japanese Watching Tests... 1912," we witness a significant moment in early aviation history. The image captures a group of Japanese military officials observing the testing of a Curtiss airplane for the United States Army. The scene is set against the backdrop of a barren landscape, with the Curtiss plane, a pioneering aircraft of the time, prominently displayed in the foreground. Three Japanese officers, dressed in Western-style uniforms, are seen intently watching the testing process. Among them are Commanders Saito and Hiroga, and Colonel K. Inouyo. The trio dons bowler hats, a fashionable accessory of the era, adding an interesting element to the image. This photograph provides a unique glimpse into the international exchange of knowledge and technology during the early days of aviation. It is believed that the Japanese military was keenly interested in the latest advancements in aviation technology and were actively seeking to learn from the United States. This image, taken in 1912, documents this exchange and underscores the global nature of early aviation development. The photograph, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a fascinating look into the past, providing valuable insights into the world of early aviation and international relations. The image is a testament to the pioneering spirit of the time and the determination of individuals to push the boundaries of human achievement.
