EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the White House in Washington D.C. during a period of significant storm damage between 1913 and 1918. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases the neoclassical facade of the presidential residence with an air of resilience amidst the natural upheaval. The storm is evident through the uprooted trees, scattered debris, and broken glass on the ground. The grandeur of the White House's neoclassical architecture, with its columns and intricate details, stands in stark contrast to the chaos unfolding around it. The photograph was taken during the early 20th century, a time when the United States was undergoing rapid transformation. The White House, as the symbol of the American government, bore the brunt of the elements, showcasing the country's enduring spirit in the face of adversity. This image, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the power of nature and the resilience of the nation's most iconic buildings. The photograph was captured by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, who were prominent figures in the photography industry during the 1910s. Their photographic studio, Harris Ewing Inc., was renowned for its high-quality glass negatives, which were used to produce this stunning image. The photograph's rich history and artistic merit make it an invaluable addition to any collection focusing on American history, art, or photography.
