EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Friendship Charity Fete," was captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio in 1913. The image features an engaging scene of an outdoor charity event, where three distinguished individuals, Mrs. R.L. Orven, John R. McLean, and Mrs. Richmond Hobson, are seen enjoying the festivities. The women are elegantly dressed in fashionable apparel of the early 1910s, with Mrs. Orven wearing a stylish hat adorned with a large bow. Mrs. Richmond Hobson, possibly identified as Grizelda Houston Hull, is pictured with her two children, Lucia and Richard, who are dressed in adorable outfits. In the background, Mr. and Mrs. William Randolph Hearst are also present, adding an air of affluence and prestige to the event. The charity fete appears to be a successful fundraiser, with various activities and entertainment for attendees. The image, taken as a glass negative, showcases the classic elegance of the era and offers a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and influential during this time in American history. The Harris & Ewing Collection, housed at the Library of Congress, is a valuable resource for historians and researchers, providing a wealth of information about the people, places, and events of the 20th century. This photograph, in particular, offers a unique insight into the world of charity events and the fashion trends of the 1910s.
