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, this urban park has long been a cherished retreat for residents and visitors alike. The image reveals a serene landscape, dotted with vibrant autumn foliage, winding roads, and picturesque bridges. The park's lush greenery and clear, tranquil waters of Rock Creek contrast sharply with the bustling cityscape that lies just beyond its borders. The photograph was likely taken during the early 20th century, a time when the park was becoming increasingly popular as a destination for leisurely strolls, picnics, and horseback riding. The inclusion of a horse-drawn carriage in the image underscores this notion, as it transports a couple through the park's scenic vistas. The photographers, George W. Harris and Martha Ewing, were renowned for their work documenting the people and places of Washington, D.C. and the surrounding areas. Their partnership, Harris & Ewing, produced countless images that captured the essence of life in the nation's capital during the early 1900s. This particular photograph, with its stunning composition and timeless appeal, stands as a testament to their artistic vision and the enduring allure of Rock Creek Park.
