EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'War Congress on Capitol Steps,' captures a significant moment in American history between 1910 and 1920. Taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, the image depicts a group of congressmen and legislators assembled on the steps of the Capitol Building in Washington D.C. During this period, America was on the brink of entering the First World War, and the gravity of the situation is palpable in the solemn expressions and serious demeanor of the men. The architectural backdrop of the Capitol Building, with its grand columns and intricate facade, serves as a stark contrast to the simple, practical clothing worn by the lawmakers. The glass negative, a testament to the artistic vision of George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, captures the essence of a pivotal moment in American history. The image is part of the extensive Harris Ewing Collection, housed in the Library of Congress, and is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or art. This poignant snapshot in time offers a glimpse into the past, providing a unique perspective on the men who shaped the country's future during the 1910s and 1920s.
