EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio 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 the serene river as it gracefully flows over the road, creating a mesmerizing scene of nature and infrastructure coexisting in harmony. The park's rich history is reflected in the horse-drawn carriage, reminding us of a bygone era. Harris & Ewing, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze (later married to Marvin Newcombe), was a prominent photographic studio in Washington, D.C. Known for their stunning glass negatives, their work is an invaluable contribution to the heritage of American photography. This particular photograph, with its intriguing juxtaposition of nature and urban life, invites us to reflect on the evolution of our cities and the importance of preserving natural spaces within them. The glass negative, a testament to the artistry and technical prowess of Harris & Ewing, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the timeless allure of Rock Creek Park and the history it holds.
