EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio in 1917, captures the elegant residence of Samuel Miller Breckinridge Long, the 3rd Assistant Secretary of State in Washington D.C. The image offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the early 20th century American political elite. The residence, adorned with intricate architectural details, stands proudly against a clear blue sky. The interior of the house is equally impressive, as seen in this photograph of the music room. The room is filled with an array of musical instruments, suggesting that music played an important role in the daily life of the Long family. An ornate organ dominates the space, its pipes reaching towards the high ceiling. The room is further adorned with rich fabrics, ornate moldings, and large windows that let in plenty of natural light. Samuel Miller Breckinridge Long served as the Assistant Secretary of State from 1913 to 1921, during a time of significant political and social change in the United States. This photograph provides a window into the world of the American political elite during this period, offering a glimpse into their homes, lifestyles, and interests. The Harris & Ewing studio, founded by George Harris and his daughters Martha Ewing and Martha Kuntze, was a leading photographic studio in Washington D.C. during this time, known for its high-quality glass negatives and stunning still images. This photograph is a testament to their artistic vision and technical expertise.
