EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Polo, 1916," showcases the thrilling moment of a polo match in progress. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, captures the intensity and excitement of the game as players skillfully maneuver their horses and mallets, poised to strike the small, hard polo ball. The photograph was taken during the 1910s in the United States, and the scene is set against a vast, open field, with spectators in the background, adding to the sense of grandeur and occasion. The photograph features several polo players, all dressed in the traditional attire of the sport, including tall boots, breeches, and protective helmets. The ponies, with their muscular builds and sleek coats, are a testament to the strength and agility required for this physically demanding game. The players, with their focused expressions and determined body language, convey the intense concentration and athleticism needed to excel in polo. The photograph, which is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, was taken by George William Harris or Martha Ewing Kuntze, both of whom were prominent photographers working for Harris Ewing Inc., a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. The studio was known for its high-quality glass negatives, which produced stunning, clear images like this one. The photograph's timeless beauty and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any collection of American history or sports photography.
