EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Interstate Commerce," was captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio between 1910 and 1920. The image presents a captivating scene of urban life during a pivotal period in American history. The facade of a grand, imposing federal building dominates the frame, its classical columns and intricate detailing a testament to the architectural prowess of the era. At the base of the building, a motorcar sits parked at the curb, its sleek lines and gleaming chrome a stark contrast to the stone and glass of the surrounding structure. The intersection of commerce and transportation is beautifully illustrated in this image. The federal building, a symbol of government and political power, stands proudly amidst the bustling activity of the city streets. Cars line the road, their drivers and passengers going about their daily business, while pedestrians navigate the busy corner. The photograph, a glass negative from the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, transports us back in time to an era of change and progress in America. George W. Harris and Martha Ewing, the founders of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio, were pioneers in the field of photography. Their studio, which operated from 1902 to 1933, was known for its high-quality work and innovative techniques. This photograph, with its timeless composition and intriguing subject matter, is a testament to their artistic vision and the enduring power of photography to capture history.
