Mrs. Abby Scott Baker and Sons, 1917 or 1918
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant photograph capturing the spirit of a dedicated American suffragist and women's rights advocate, Abby Pearce Scott Baker. The image, created by the renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, showcases Baker with her three sons, all of whom served during the First World War. Abby Scott Baker was a significant figure in the women's suffrage movement in the United States, serving as the Political Chair of the National Woman's Party. Her unwavering commitment to women's rights and suffrage was a testament to her courage and conviction. The photograph, taken during the 1910s, is a poignant reminder of the era's historical significance. The First World War had just begun, and the country was in a state of turmoil. Amidst the chaos, Baker's sons, George William Harris, George Harris, and Guy Harris, answered the call to duty, joining the ranks of the military. The image, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, depicts Baker in a simple yet elegant dress, her expression reflective and proud. Her sons, dressed in their military uniforms, stand beside her, their gazes fixed on the camera. The photograph encapsulates the spirit of sacrifice, love, and resilience that defined the era. The photograph's creators, Harris & Ewing, were a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. The studio, which was founded by Harris Ewing and his wife Martha Ewing Kuntze, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and stunning portraits. This particular photograph is a testament to their artistic vision and technical prowess. Today, the image serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by Baker and her sons during a pivotal moment in American history. It is a poignant reminder of the importance of activism, the power of the human spirit, and the enduring bond between a mother and her children.
