EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing in the Philippines in 1912, captures a moment in the early history of American scientific exploration and expansion. The image features several young men in a laboratory setting, intently focused on their work. The laboratory, equipped with glass beakers, bottles, and other scientific instruments, is likely part of a research project funded by the United States government. At the time, the Philippines was a territory of the United States following the Spanish-American War, and American influence in the fields of science and education was growing. The young men in the photograph may have been Filipino students or assistants, learning from American scientists and researchers. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a prominent American photographic studio based in Washington D.C. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1902, became known for its high-quality glass negatives and was a leading supplier of photographs to the U.S. Congressional Library. This particular photograph is part of the Harris Ewing Collection, which includes over 40,000 images documenting American life in the early 20th century. The young men in the photograph embody the spirit of scientific inquiry and exploration that characterized the era. Their focused expressions and diligent work in the laboratory reflect the dedication and commitment required to advance knowledge and understanding in the fields of science and technology. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of scientific discovery and collaboration between the United States and the Philippines during this period.
