The record identifies the sitter as Admiral Lucius Bostwick, in a portrait dated October 6, 1937. It was made by Harris & Ewing, the Washington, D.C., studio founded in 1905 by George W. Harris and Richard Lee Ewing. The firm photographed a steady stream of government officials, military officers, and visiting dignitaries, and its negatives, now held by the Library of Congress, document much of the capital's public life in the first half of the twentieth century. Official portraits of this kind were often used in press coverage and in naval and government records, so the studio's formal style reflects how the era presented its leaders.
