EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Ford Tractor, 1917," captures the essence of rural America during the early 20th century. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases a Ford tractor making its way through a field, leaving a trail of freshly turned earth in its wake. The tractor's powerful presence stands in stark contrast to the serene countryside backdrop, highlighting the industrial revolution that was transforming agriculture. The driver, dressed in work clothes and wearing a hat, sits confidently at the helm, his determined expression reflecting the hard work and dedication required to bring in the harvest. The tractor, a symbol of progress and efficiency, replaced the labor-intensive methods of the past, revolutionizing farming and increasing productivity. The photograph, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, was taken by George William Harris or Martha Ewing Newcombe, two talented photographers who worked for the renowned Harris Ewing Photographic Studio in Washington D.C. The studio was known for its high-quality glass negatives and its ability to capture the spirit of the times, making this image a valuable addition to any collection focused on American history, agriculture, or rural life. The image, with its rich heritage and historical significance, is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the American farmer and the role that industrialization played in shaping the agricultural landscape of the United States.
