EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by Harris & Ewing between 1913 and 1918, presents a striking view of Washington Barracks, located in Washington D.C. along the banks of the Potomac River. The image showcases a collection of buildings that once served as the headquarters for the Marine Corps Base. The Marine Barracks, with its distinctive red-roofed structures, stands proudly against the backdrop of the river and the surrounding trees. Smoke billows from the chimneys, indicating the bustling activity within. The Potomac River, a major geographical feature of the area, can be seen in the foreground, its calm waters reflecting the buildings and the clear blue sky above. This photograph, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history of the United States military during the early 20th century. The image is particularly significant due to its creators, George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, who were prominent figures in the photography industry during this time. Harris & Ewing, Inc., their photographic studio, was a leading producer of images for commercial and editorial use. The photograph's glass negative, a testament to the technological advancements of the era, has been carefully preserved and is now accessible to researchers, historians, and anyone interested in the rich history of the United States and its military heritage.
