EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1910 and 1920 by Harris & Ewing, captures the elegant interior of the home of Franklin and Emily MacVeagh located on 16th Street, N.W. in Washington, D.C. Franklin MacVeagh, an American politician, lawyer, grocer, and banker, served as Secretary of the Treasury under President William Howard Taft during this time. The interior design of the residence showcases the opulence and sophistication of the early 20th century. The room depicted in the photograph features a grand fireplace with an ornate timber mantelpiece, framed by a balustrade. The balustrade, made of intricately carved wood, adds a sense of grandeur to the space. The room is also adorned with large glass windows, allowing natural light to illuminate the interior. The interior decoration includes ornate wallpaper, intricate moldings, and a variety of textures and patterns, all of which contribute to the overall sense of luxury and refinement. The MacVeagh residence was undoubtedly a testament to the wealth and status of its occupants. The photograph provides a glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who once called this beautiful home their own. Today, this image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, a valuable resource for historians and researchers studying the architectural and social history of Washington, D.C. and the United States during the early 20th century.
