EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Democratic National Convention - John Hollis Bankhead, Rep. From Alabama, 1912," showcases a pivotal moment in American political history. The image was captured by the renowned photography studio, Harris & Ewing, during the Democratic National Convention held in Baltimore, Maryland. John Hollis Bankhead, a prominent Democratic politician from Alabama, is the subject of the photograph. Bankhead served as a Representative from 1887 to 1907 and later became a Senator from 1907 to 1920. In this photograph, Bankhead is seen dressed in formal attire, complete with a Panama hat and a cigar clenched between his teeth. He is gesturing animatedly, likely making a point during the convention proceedings. The photograph is a testament to the fashion and style of the early 20th century. Bankhead's clothing, which includes a crisp shirt, vest, and jacket, is typical of the era. His Panama hat, a popular accessory during this time, adds to the overall charm of the image. The photograph is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a leading photographic studio in Washington, D.C., during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The studio captured many significant moments in American history, including political events, social gatherings, and everyday life. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American political history or early 20th-century fashion. It provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the world of politics during a time when men in hats and cigars were a common sight on the floor of the convention.
