Made in the Washington, D.C., studio of Harris & Ewing, this portrait comes from a firm that photographed a large share of the capital's political and social life. George W. Harris and Richard Lee Ewing founded the studio in 1905, and it operated for decades, building a huge body of work that now sits in the Library of Congress. Its sitters included members of Congress, government officials, and visitors passing through the city, and the studio's posed, carefully lit portraits became a familiar record of how Washington presented itself during the early twentieth century. Looking closely at the clothing, backdrop, and pose can reveal a good deal about the fashions and formal conventions of that era.
