EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio in 1917, showcases the exterior of the Residence of Samuel Miller Breckinridge Long, the 3rd Assistant Secretary of State in Washington D.C. during the first world war era. The residence, located in the heart of the nation's capital, exudes an air of grandeur and sophistication with its stately columns, intricate brickwork, and expansive front lawn. Long, a prominent figure in American politics, served under President Woodrow Wilson during a pivotal time in the country's history. The residence, which also housed soldiers and their families during the war, stands as a testament to the era's unique blend of official business and domestic life. The photograph, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, was taken by George H. Harris or Martha Ewing Kuntze, two of the studio's most accomplished photographers. The image's crisp lines and tonal range highlight the architectural details of the residence, making it a valuable addition to any collection of American history or architectural photography. The photograph's historical significance is further underscored by its association with the first world war, an era marked by global conflict and political upheaval. The presence of tents in the background suggests that the residence was also used as a temporary shelter for soldiers, adding another layer of meaning to the image. Overall, this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the life of a prominent American political figure and the unique historical context in which he served.
