Mrs. J.C. Crawford of Smithsonian, 1914
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph by Harris & Ewing, featuring Martha Kuntze Crawford, an accomplished entomologist and lepidopterist who dedicated her life to the study of butterflies and moths at the Smithsonian Institution. In this image, Martha is seen in her element, surrounded by a beautiful collection of pinned butterfly specimens. Her intense focus and passion for her work are evident as she carefully examines the delicate wings of a butterfly, her expression reflecting a deep sense of wonder and fascination. The glass negatives of this photograph, taken in the early 1910s, capture the essence of a bygone era and offer a glimpse into the world of scientific research during that time. Martha Kuntze Crawford was a trailblazer for women in science, working at the Smithsonian Institution during a time when opportunities for women in the field were limited. Her dedication to her work and her contributions to the field of entomology were significant, and her legacy continues to inspire new generations of scientists and natural history enthusiasts. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and importance of scientific research and the role it plays in expanding our understanding of the natural world. The intricately pinned butterfly specimens, arranged meticulously on the wall behind Martha, serve as a reminder of the countless hours of dedication and curiosity that went into their collection and preservation. The photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing, is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress, providing a window into the past and offering a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who dedicated her life to the study of nature's most beautiful creatures.
