EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Democratic National Convention - Col. George Harvey; Sen. A.O. Bacon of Georgia, 1912," is a fascinating glimpse into American political history, captured by the renowned photography studio, Harris & Ewing. The image features two prominent figures of the time: Colonel George Brinton McClellan Harvey and Senator Augustus Octavius Bacon of Georgia. Colonel Harvey, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a Panama hat, was an American diplomat, journalist, author, railway magnate, and magazine editor. He served as the United States Commissioner to Panama during the construction of the Panama Canal and later became the editor of Cosmopolitan Magazine. Senator Bacon, on the other hand, was a Confederate soldier, segregationist, and politician from Georgia. He served in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War and later became a member of the United States Senate. Bacon is depicted in the photograph wearing a dark suit and a bowler hat. The photograph was taken during the Democratic National Convention in 1912, which took place in Baltimore, Maryland. The convention was significant as it marked the first time that a presidential nominee, Woodrow Wilson, was selected through a primary election process. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American history, showcasing the fashion and political climate of the early 20th century. The image is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 30,000 glass negatives taken by the studio between 1910 and 1930. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was one of the most prominent photographic studios in Washington, D.C. during this period.
