Admiral George Dewey, U.S.N., 1912: A Portrait of a Naval Hero by Harris & Ewing This photograph captures the distinguished image of Admiral George Dewey, U.S.N., taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing in 1912. Admiral Dewey, born in 1837, was a veteran of two significant periods in American history: the Civil War and the Spanish-American War. Dewey is depicted in this portrait wearing formal attire, including a bowler hat, which was a popular choice among men of the time. His crisp, white shirt, dark jacket, and trousers reflect the traditional naval uniform of the era. The admiral's stern yet composed expression conveys the gravity and responsibility that came with his position as a naval leader. The photograph was taken during a time when the United States Navy was expanding its influence on the global stage. Dewey's accomplishments, particularly his victory in the Battle of Manila Bay during the Spanish-American War, solidified his place as a naval hero and a symbol of American military might. This portrait, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the fashion, culture, and history of the early 20th century. The image serves as a reminder of the important role Admiral Dewey played in shaping the United States Navy and the country's place in the world.
