EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Unidentified Group On Entrance Stairway of John Barrett's Residence; 12 Men, 3 Women, Child, 1915," was captured by the renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing. The image depicts a group of 15 individuals gathered on the entrance stairway of a grand residence. Among them are 12 men, dressed in suits and hats, and three women, wearing elegant dresses and hats. A young child is also present, playfully holding onto the railing. John Barrett, an American diplomat, is believed to be the owner of the residence. The group comprises of his staff members, likely a mix of clergy and lay employees. The men are identified as clergymen, possibly parsons or vicars, given their attire and the religious context of the image. The women, wearing modest dresses and hats, are likely wives or female employees. The child, with a curious expression, adds a charming touch to the photograph. The photograph was taken in the early 1910s and is part of the extensive Harris Ewing Collection held at the Library of Congress. The collection, which includes over 12,000 glass negatives, is a valuable historical resource, providing insights into American life during the 20th century. This particular image, with its formal yet warm atmosphere, offers a glimpse into the social fabric of the time and the people who served in the diplomatic corps.
