EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the 1910s, President Woodrow Wilson presents the Eastern Yacht Club Cup to the victorious owner of the yacht "Ellen" following a race off Marblehead, Massachusetts in 1913. The image captures a moment of triumph and camaraderie as Wilson, dressed in a formal suit and holding the ornate cup aloft, looks proudly at the yacht's owner, who proudly clutches the trophy and wears a broad smile. The scene is set against the backdrop of the picturesque New England coastline, with the sails of other yachts visible in the distance. This photograph, taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, is a testament to the rich history of yachting and sailing in America during the early 20th century. The Eastern Yacht Club, founded in 1870, is one of the oldest and most prestigious sailing clubs in the country, and has a long tradition of hosting races and regattas. The image also offers a glimpse into the social and political elite of the time, as Wilson was the 28th President of the United States and a prominent figure in American politics. The photograph, which is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable historical artifact that provides insight into the pastimes and social customs of the era. The image is also a beautiful example of the artistic and technical skill of the photographers at Harris & Ewing, who expertly captured the essence of the moment and the spirit of the event. Overall, this photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, and a reminder of the enduring appeal of sailing and the sea.
