EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1910, US President William Howard Taft is seen taking a leisurely stroll through the streets of Washington D.C. with his two companions, Archibald Butt and Charles Dewey Hilles. Taft, dressed in a formal suit and bowler hat, appears to be in high spirits as he engages in conversation with his military aide, Archibald Butt, who is wearing a similar outfit and is seen adjusting his own bowler hat. The Secretary to the President, Charles Dewey Hilles, is depicted in a more casual attire, wearing a suit jacket and no hat. The trio's body language exudes a sense of camaraderie and ease, adding to the informal and friendly atmosphere of the scene. The image captures a rare moment of relaxation for the President, who is often depicted in more formal and serious settings. This photograph, taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, is a testament to the fashion and style of the early 20th century. The use of glass negatives by the studio adds to the historical significance and authenticity of the image. The photograph is now part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, making it an invaluable addition to the nation's cultural heritage. Archibald Butt, a prominent figure in Taft's administration, was known for his close relationship with the President and his role in managing White House social events. Charles Dewey Hilles, on the other hand, served as Secretary to the President from 1909 to 1912 and was responsible for managing the President's official correspondence and scheduling. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the personal lives of these influential figures and provides a fascinating insight into the social and political landscape of early 20th century America.
