EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Flags - Huge American Flag, 1914," was created by the renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing. The image showcases an iconic moment in American history, as the "Star-Spangled Banner," the flag that flew during the War of 1812, is displayed at the Smithsonian Castle in Washington, D.C. Above the flag, an intriguing object resembling a giant squid suspends from the ceiling, adding an unusual and captivating element to the scene. The 20th century photograph, taken during the 1910s, is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. The studio, founded by George H. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a significant contributor to the documentation of American history. This image, in particular, embodies the spirit of patriotism and the country's rich heritage. The enormous American flag, which is the standard size of 30x42 feet, is displayed indoors, inside the hallowed halls of the Smithsonian Institution. The interior setting provides a sense of reverence and importance to the flag, which has been a symbol of the United States since its inception. The presence of the giant squid above the flag may seem unusual, but it adds an element of scientific curiosity to the image. The squid, a fascinating aquatic creature, is often associated with the depths of the ocean and the mysteries of the natural world. Its inclusion in this photograph serves as a reminder of the ongoing exploration and discovery that has characterized American history. This photograph is a testament to the power of images to transport us to the past and inspire awe and wonder. It is a valuable educational resource, providing a glimpse into American history and the cultural significance of the Star-Spangled Banner.
