EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a pivotal moment at the Democratic National Convention in 1912. Senators Thomas Pryor Gore of Oklahoma and Edwin Stockton Johnson of South Dakota are prominently featured, both dressed in formal attire typical of the early 20th century. Gore, wearing a dark suit and bow tie, gazes intently at something off-camera, while Johnson, wearing a light-colored suit and striped tie, looks directly at the photographer. In the background, a man in a hat can be seen standing near a window, adding depth and intrigue to the image. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. at the time. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and portraits of prominent American figures. This particular image is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. The Democratic National Convention of 1912 was a significant event in American political history, as it marked the end of the Progressive Era and the beginning of the modern political party system. The convention ultimately nominated Woodrow Wilson for president, who went on to win the election later that year. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and politics of the time, as well as the skill and artistry of the Harris & Ewing photographic studio.
