EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio. This image showcases the iconic Arlington Mansion, also known as the Robert E. Lee Memorial, located in Arlington County, Virginia, United States. The mansion, which stands proudly against the backdrop of Arlington National Cemetery, was once the home of Confederate Army General Robert E. Lee. The photograph, taken in the 1910s, highlights the grandeur of the mansion's columns, which add to its historic charm. The columns, with their intricate designs and tall stature, stand as a testament to the rich heritage and history of the estate. The mansion, also known as the Custis-Lee Mansion or the Arlington House, is a significant historical landmark that has witnessed many pivotal moments in American history, including the death of General Lee's wife, Mary Custis Lee, in the mansion in 1873. The photograph is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection, which is held at the Library of Congress. The collection, which consists of over 20,000 glass negatives, is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in American history. The photograph was taken by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing, who were the founders of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio in Washington D.C. The studio was known for its high-quality work and was a popular choice for political and social events in the early 20th century. The Arlington Mansion - Columns, 1917, is a stunning reminder of the past, showcasing the beauty and history of this iconic American landmark.
