EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Street scene near Keith's Theater, Washington, D.C. between 1913 and 1918,' is a stunning snapshot of life in the nation's capital during the early 1900s. The image, created by the renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, showcases a bustling city scene filled with activity. At the heart of the scene is Keith's Theater, a popular playhouse that once stood on the corner of 14th and U Streets NW. The theater marquee, adorned with an elaborate banner, proudly displays the title of the current production. Surrounding the theater are a variety of buildings, including an apartment block with large windows and a glass-fronted store. The sidewalks are filled with people, some dressed in their Sunday best, while others are bundled up against the cold. A lorry and several automobiles, including a bus and an omnibus, are parked along the road. Snow covers the ground, adding to the wintery atmosphere. The American flag, proudly displayed on a flagpole, flies high above the scene, a symbol of national pride. The image is a testament to the vibrant energy and diversity of Washington, D.C. during this era, and serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past. This photograph is part of the extensive Harris Ewing Collection, housed at the Library of Congress. George W. Harris and Martha Ewing, the founders of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio, captured thousands of images of American life during the early 20th century. Their work continues to be a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the United States.
