EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Army, U.S. 1917" by Harris & Ewing, captures a poignant moment in American history. The image depicts a group of American soldiers, standing at attention in full length, clad in their military uniforms. The soldiers wear heavy great coats and hats, suggesting the harsh winter conditions they were likely enduring during their training. The photograph was taken during the First World War, a time when the United States Army underwent rapid expansion to meet the demands of the global conflict. The photograph was taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896. The studio was known for its high-quality glass negatives and became a leading supplier of photographs to Congressional libraries and other institutions. This particular photograph is part of the Harris Ewing Collection, which is now housed in the Library of Congress. The soldiers in the photograph are shown in a formal, disciplined pose, their faces expressionless, yet their posture conveys a sense of determination and resolve. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the American military during the First World War, and the important role the United States played in shaping the course of the conflict. The photograph also offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and clothing of the time, with the soldiers' uniforms providing a stark contrast to the civilian clothing of the era.
