EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures soprano opera singer Mabel Garrison Siemonn in a moment of patriotic duty during World War I. Taken on July 16, 1917, the image shows Mabel standing proudly alongside an officer and sailors on board the U.S.S. Recruit, a wooden mockup battleship built in Union Square, New York City by the Navy for recruiting seamen and selling Liberty Bonds.
Mabel Garrison's powerful voice and commanding presence made her a beloved figure in the world of opera, but here we see her taking on a different role - using her talent to support the war effort and boost morale among troops. The sight of this talented singer lending her voice to such an important cause is truly inspiring.
As she stands amidst the sailors and officers, it is clear that Mabel Garrison was not just a performer but also a patriot willing to do her part for her country. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals from all walks of life during times of conflict.
The black-and-white image exudes both strength and grace, capturing Mabel Garrison at a pivotal moment in history when music played an essential role in boosting spirits and fostering unity among Americans.
