EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, created by Harris & Ewing in 1911, captures a pivotal moment in American political history with the image of Robert M. La Follette, Rep. from Wisconsin. La Follette, also known as "Fighting Bob," was a prominent American lawyer and politician who made significant strides in Wisconsin politics during the early 20th century. Born in January 1855, La Follette served as Wisconsin's Representative from 1885 to 1891, Governor from 1901 to 1906, and as a Senator from 1906 to 1925. This photograph was taken during his tenure as a Representative. The image shows a determined and focused La Follette, dressed in a suit and tie, gazing directly at the camera with a serious expression. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. at the time. Martha Ewing and George W. Harris were the primary photographers for the studio, and this photograph is part of their extensive collection. La Follette's political career was marked by his commitment to progressive reforms, including the direct primary, initiative, referendum, and recall. He was a vocal critic of the corrupt political machines that dominated American politics at the time and championed the cause of the common man. This photograph is an important historical artifact, providing a glimpse into the life of a man who played a significant role in shaping American politics during the 1900s. It is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical significance.
