EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing in 1911, captures a historic moment in international relations as Admiral Togo Heihachiro of the Japanese Imperial Navy stands at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The Marquis Togo, as he was known, was a renowned admiral who had led Japan to a decisive victory in the Russo-Japanese War just a decade earlier. His visit to the US Naval Academy was a significant gesture of goodwill and a testament to the burgeoning relationship between the two nations. Admiral Togo is seen here in full military regalia, wearing a traditional Japanese admiral's uniform adorned with gold braid and intricate embroidery. He is surrounded by a group of American naval officers and officials, all dressed in their formal uniforms, as they engage in conversation. The setting is the picturesque campus of the Naval Academy, with its iconic steeple and flag-lined walkways, providing a backdrop to this important diplomatic encounter. The photograph was taken during a time when the world was undergoing significant political and social changes, and the image of the Japanese admiral standing alongside his American counterparts serves as a reminder of the growing interconnectedness of nations and the importance of diplomacy in shaping international relations. This photograph, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the past and sheds light on the evolving relationship between Japan and the United States.
