EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Hale Holden, Center, with Newspapermen, 1917," captures a moment in American business history. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, features Hale Holden, an influential businessman of the 20th century, standing proudly in the center surrounded by a group of newsmen. Holden was a prominent figure in the railroad industry, serving as President of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad and Chairman of the Board of Directors for Southern Pacific Railroad. The scene unfolds in a Washington D.C. setting, with Holden dressed impeccably in a formal suit, complete with a crisp white shirt and a dark tie. His fashionable attire contrasts sharply with the more casual clothing of the newsmen, who wear suits with open collars and some donning straw hats, including a Panama hat, which was a popular accessory during that era. The photograph's composition, with Holden in the center and the journalists gathered around him, suggests a press conference or an important announcement. The image is a testament to the power dynamics of the time, with Holden, a prominent business leader, engaging with the media, who played a crucial role in shaping public opinion. The photograph, taken during the 1910s, is a valuable addition to any collection of American history, showcasing the fashion, culture, and business landscape of the era. This image, from the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a must-have for anyone interested in American history, business, and photography.
