EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio between 1910 and 1920, showcases an intriguing model airplane undergoing experimental testing. The image exudes an aura of scientific discovery and innovation, as the airplane's sleek design and meticulously crafted propellers attest to the burgeoning field of aeronautics during the early 20th century in America. The photograph, which is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing collection, offers a glimpse into the laboratories and research facilities where pioneering aviation enthusiasts and scientists were pushing the boundaries of air transport. The model airplane, with its delicate wings and precise propeller blades, is a testament to the dedication and ingenuity of these early aviation pioneers. Harris & Ewing, a prominent photographic studio based in Washington D.C., captured this image during an era of significant advancements in aviation technology. The studio, which was founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1912, documented the scientific and technological milestones of the time, including the development of airplanes and their propulsion systems. This photograph, with its rich historical significance, is an essential addition to any collection focusing on the history of aviation, aerodynamics, and scientific research and development during the 1900s and the 1910s and 1920s. The intricate details of the model airplane and the scientific apparatus surrounding it serve as a reminder of the pioneering spirit and the relentless pursuit of knowledge that characterized this period in American history.
