Mrs. William E. Borah In Auto, 1912
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph by renowned American photography studio, Harris & Ewing. The image features Mary McConnell Borah, the elegant and stylish wife of Senator William Edgar Borah from Idaho. Dressed in fashionable early 1910s attire, Mary Borah exudes an air of sophistication as she sits confidently in the passenger seat of an automobile. Her fur-trimmed coat, which adds a touch of luxury and warmth, is draped over her arms, while a muff rests on the floor beside her. The Senator's wife wears a dainty hat adorned with a ribbon, and her outfit is completed with a long, flowing dress that billows gently in the wind. The photograph was taken during an era when automobiles were still a novelty and represented a symbol of wealth and status. Mary Borah's presence in the car, along with her fashionable attire, emphasizes the glamour and excitement associated with this new mode of transportation. The image is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection held at the Library of Congress. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896, was one of the most prominent photographic studios in Washington, D.C. during the early 20th century. Their work captured the essence of American life during this period, providing a valuable historical record of the time. This photograph, in particular, offers a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and influential, showcasing the fashion trends and automobile culture of the early 1910s. It is a testament to the enduring allure of the past and the power of a single image to transport us back in time.
