EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Tests of Curtiss Plane For Army, 1912" by Harris & Ewing, offers a glimpse into the early days of aviation history. The image, captured in Washington D.C., showcases a Curtiss biplane soaring above the iconic Washington Monument. At the time, this area was not yet a tourist attraction, but rather a site of significant research and development. The Curtiss Biplane, a pioneering aircraft designed by the American aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss, was undergoing tests for military use. The United States Army was exploring the potential of airplanes for transportation and reconnaissance purposes. The biplane, with its distinctive bi-wing design, appears to be in mid-flight, its wings outstretched against the clear blue sky. The photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, is a testament to the spirit of innovation and progress that characterized the early 1910s. George W. Harris and Martha Ewing, the founders of Harris & Ewing Inc., were known for their high-quality glass negatives, which captured the essence of their subjects with remarkable clarity. This image, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to the historical record of aviation in America. The Washington Monument, an obelisk dedicated to the first President of the United States, stands as a symbol of American history and resilience. The juxtaposition of the biplane and the monument underscores the transformative power of technology and innovation. This photograph invites us to reflect on the past and marvel at the incredible progress that has shaped our world.
