EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio in 1915, captures the majestic exterior of Saint John's Protestant Episcopal Church in Washington D.C.'s Lafayette Square. Designed by the esteemed architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe in the Greek Revival style, the church is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of America's capital city. The photograph, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, showcases the church's grandeur with its imposing columns, intricate detailing, and expansive glass windows. The image is a snapshot in time, transporting us back to the early 20th century when this beautiful place of worship was a vibrant center of the community. Benjamin Henry Latrobe, a prominent figure in American architecture, designed the church in the late 18th century. The building underwent significant renovations in the 1910s, resulting in the stunning appearance captured in this photograph. The church, also known as the Church of St. John, has continued to be a beloved landmark in Washington D.C., serving as a beacon of faith and history for generations. The Harris & Ewing studio, founded by George H. Harris, George W. Harris, and Martha Ewing Kuntze (later married to Martha Ewing Newcombe), was a leading photographic studio in Washington D.C. during the early 20th century. Their work, including this photograph of Saint John's P.E. Church, remains an invaluable contribution to the historical record of America's architectural and cultural heritage.
