EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, Elliot Woods, the Superintendent of the Capitol in Washington, D.C., is shown in full length, dressed in formal attire of the early 1910s. The image, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, exudes an air of authority and professionalism. Woods, an American architect, served as the Architect of the Capitol from 1902 to 1923. During his tenure, he oversaw various renovations and expansions of the United States Capitol Building. In this portrait, Woods is seen wearing a bowler hat and a tailored suit, complete with a crisp white shirt and a neatly tied tie. His posture is confident, and his gaze is steady, reflecting the responsibility he held as the caretaker of one of the most iconic buildings in the country. The Capitol Building, located in Washington, D.C., is a symbol of the United States government and a testament to the country's rich history. Woods' dedication and expertise were instrumental in preserving and enhancing its architectural beauty. This photograph, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing both the man and the iconic building he helped protect and maintain. The photograph was taken in the early 1910s, during the 20th century, and is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on American history, architecture, or fashion. The image is a testament to the era's sartorial elegance and the importance of the Capitol Building in the United States' cultural and political landscape.
