EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the tranquil beauty of Thomas Jefferson's grave at Monticello, his beloved estate in Charlottesville, Virginia, between 1914 and 1918. The image, created by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when history seemed to move more slowly. The scene is one of quiet reflection, with the venerable trees and lush plants surrounding the simple, white grave, which bears the inscription, "Here Was Buried Thomas Jefferson, Author of the Declaration of American Independence, of the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom, and Father of the University of Virginia." The serene setting, with its gentle slope and the distant view of Monticello's iconic dome, speaks to the enduring legacy of the third President of the United States. The photograph was likely taken by one of the skilled photographers at Harris & Ewing, such as George W. Harris or Martha Ewing Newcombe, who were known for their ability to capture the essence of their subjects. This image, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the power of photography to preserve history and transport us to another time and place.
