EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by Harris & Ewing between 1910 and 1920, showcases the scenic beauty of Rock Creek Park in Washington, D.C. Established in 1890 through an Act of Congress, Rock Creek Park is a cherished urban oasis that spans over 1,700 acres. The image reveals a serene landscape, where the gentle flow of Rock Creek meanders through the park, surrounded by lush greenery and picturesque bridges. The bridge in the foreground, with its intricate stonework and arched design, adds an element of elegance and charm to the scene. The photograph also highlights the winding roads that crisscross the park, inviting visitors to explore its many wonders. The absence of modern structures and vehicles adds to the timeless quality of the image, transporting us back to a simpler era. The photograph was likely taken using a glass negative, a common technique during the early 20th century. This method allowed for greater detail and tonal range, resulting in stunningly clear and crisp images. Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington, D.C., was responsible for capturing this exquisite moment in time. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze (later married to George Newcombe), was known for its high-quality work and extensive collection of photographs. Today, this photograph serves as a testament to the enduring allure of Rock Creek Park and the artistry of Harris & Ewing.
