EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "J. Pierpont Morgan Sr. 1912," captures the distinguished figure of American financier and investment banker, J. Pierpont Morgan Sr. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, offers a glimpse into the affluence and power of the early 20th century American elite. Morgan, dressed in formal attire, stands tall and confident in front of a plain backdrop. He wears a dark suit, a crisp white shirt, and a bow tie, accessorized with a top hat. His posture is impeccable, and his piercing gaze exudes an air of authority and intelligence. The photograph was taken during the 1910s, a period of significant economic growth and industrialization in the United States. Morgan, who was born in Hartford, Connecticut, in 1837, played a pivotal role in shaping the American financial landscape. He founded J.P. Morgan & Co. in 1895, which grew to become one of the most influential investment banks in the world. Morgan's business acumen and financial expertise earned him the nickname "The Money Trust." The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a prominent photography studio based in Washington, D.C. The studio, which was founded by George H. Harris and his wife, Martha Ewing Harris, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and portraits of prominent political and business figures. The image is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. Overall, this photograph is a valuable historical artifact that provides insight into the fashion, power dynamics, and economic landscape of early 20th century America.
