EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Horse Shows - Rep. and Mrs. Horace M. Towner, 1911," captures a moment of elegance and refinement during an equestrian event. The image was created by the renowned photography studio, Harris & Ewing, and features Congressman Horace Mann Towner of Massachusetts, dressed in a formal suit and hat, leaning back in his chair with a contented expression. Seated next to him is his wife, Mrs. Horace Mann Towner, or as she was later known, Harriet Elizabeth Cole Towner. Harriet is dressed in a beautiful, high-necked, long-sleeved dress with a full skirt, accessorized with a hat adorned with a large bow. The setting of the photograph is a horse show, likely held in the early 1910s. The atmosphere is lively, with other attendees visible in the background, some standing and others seated, all dressed in their Sunday best. The event takes place outdoors, with trees and greenery surrounding the scene. Horace Mann Towner served as a Massachusetts State Senator and later as a Congressman from 1907 to 1913. After leaving politics, he became the Governor of Massachusetts from 1915 to 1917. His wife, Harriet Elizabeth Cole, was the daughter of Governor George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Newcombe. The couple's elegant attire and poised demeanor reflect the high society of the time, making this photograph a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and culture of the early 20th century.
