EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, created by Harris & Ewing between 1910 and 1920, showcases a group of prominent figures gathered around a desk adorned with a candlestick telephone. At the center of the group stands Josephus Daniels, an American politician, newspaper editor, and publisher who served as Secretary of the Navy during World War I. The telephone, a symbol of communication and connection during the early 20th century, adds a metaphorical layer to the image, emphasizing the importance of communication and information exchange in their roles. Surrounding Daniels are a group of men, likely his employees or colleagues, engaged in deep conversation or poring over paperwork. The atmosphere is one of focused intensity, as they tackle the demands of their jobs in the newspaper industry and the challenges of the era. The image offers a glimpse into the inner workings of a bustling office during this period, with the candlestick telephone serving as a reminder of the evolving communication landscape. The photograph is part of the Harris Ewing Collection, which includes thousands of glass negatives capturing the people, places, and events of the early 20th century. The collection provides a valuable window into American history, offering insights into the lives of politicians, business leaders, and everyday people during a time of significant change.
