Dean Woodbridge's Patriotic Plea - A Moment in History
EDITORS COMMENTS
October 1st, 1918. The world is at war. As Dean Frederick James Eugene Woodbridge of Columbia University stands on the steps of Low Memorial Library, he addresses a gathering of Student Army Training Corps and others with a message of hope and unity. This poignant photograph captures the solemn atmosphere as Professor Woodbridge delivers his speech amidst the backdrop of World War I.
The image is rendered in striking black and white tones by Bain News Service, one of the earliest news agencies to use photography for storytelling purposes. The Dean's dignified presence, dressed in formal attire with a hint of military uniform undertones, conveys a sense of gravitas as he implores his audience to support the war effort.
This historic moment is frozen in time by Bain News Service's lens, providing an intimate glimpse into the lives and concerns of those living through one of humanity's most tumultuous periods. The photograph serves not only as a testament to Dean Woodbridge's leadership but also as a poignant reminder of the collective resolve during times of global crisis.
