This portrait shows C.F. Curry, identified in the record by the title "Honorable," which points to a member of Congress or another official of the period. Harris & Ewing, the Washington, D.C., studio that made it, operated from 1905 into the 1940s and photographed a steady stream of senators, representatives, cabinet members, and other public figures. Its studio portraits were widely reproduced in newspapers and used for official and biographical purposes, so pictures like this one document how Washington's political class presented itself in the early twentieth century. The studio's large archive, now held by the Library of Congress, remains a useful resource for researchers tracing the faces of the capital's officials.
