EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Camp Meade, Maryland - Misc, Views, 1917," captures the bustling activity of soldiers and civilians at the Camp Meade military base in Maryland during the First World War. The image, created by the renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, provides a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of the army during this pivotal time in American history. Camp Meade, located in Maryland, was one of the largest military training camps in the United States during the First World War. Thousands of soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, can be seen in the photograph, engaged in various activities. Some are seen marching in formation, while others are busy with maintenance work or lounging in the grassy areas. A group of women, dressed in turn-of-the-century fashion, are also present, likely visiting the camp or providing support to the soldiers. The photograph was taken by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio. The studio, which was founded in 1896, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and became a leading supplier of photographs to Congress and various government agencies. The Harris & Ewing Collection, which includes over 100,000 glass negatives, is now housed in the Library of Congress. This photograph not only offers a unique historical record of Camp Meade during the First World War but also provides insight into the fashion and social dynamics of the time. The image is a testament to the important role that photography played in documenting and preserving history.
