EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Red Cross: Fayetteville, N.C. Canteen Service, between 1910 and 1920," captures a poignant moment in American history. Created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, the image portrays a group of dedicated women serving in the Red Cross Canteen during the early 20th century. Located in Fayetteville, North Carolina, these women were part of a larger humanitarian effort to provide aid to soldiers and civilians affected by World War I. The Red Cross Canteen served as a vital source of comfort and sustenance, offering hot meals, clothing, and other essentials to those in need. The photograph shows a group of women, dressed in their Red Cross uniforms, standing outside near a large container or canteen. They are arranged in a semi-circle, with some holding out clothing items or containers, while others engage in conversation with each other. The women exude a sense of determination and compassion, embodying the spirit of service and community during a time of great upheaval. The image also highlights the fashion of the era, with the women wearing long, flowing dresses and high collars, adding an additional layer of historical context. The outdoor setting, with trees and foliage in the background, further emphasizes the sense of tranquility and respite that the Canteen provided amidst the chaos of war. This photograph is an invaluable addition to the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the important role that organizations like the Red Cross play in providing aid and support during times of crisis.
