EDITORS COMMENTS
Edgewood Hunt, Hounds, 1912" is a captivating photograph taken by renowned American photographers Harris & Ewing. This iconic image showcases a group of foxhounds in full alertness, their ears perked up and noses to the ground, as they gather around their master at the Edgewood Hunt in the United States during the early 1910s. The photograph, which is part of the extensive Harris Ewing Collection held at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the rich tradition of fox hunting in America during the 20th century. Fox hunting, a controversial and often divisive pastime, was a popular leisure activity among the affluent classes, as evidenced by the pristine attire and well-groomed hounds in this photograph. The image was captured by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing, who were the founders of Harris Ewing Photographic Studio in Washington, D.C. The studio, which was established in 1911, became a leading provider of photographic services in the nation's capital and beyond. This photograph, with its timeless composition and striking contrast, is a testament to the duo's skill and artistry. The Edgewood Hunt, located in Maryland, was one of the most prominent fox hunting clubs in the United States during the early 1900s. The hounds in this photograph appear to be eagerly anticipating the start of the hunt, their eyes focused intently on the horizon. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, where the pursuit of tradition and the thrill of the chase were central to the lives of many Americans. Today, this photograph serves as an important historical record of a time and place that continues to spark debate and fascination. It is a reminder of the enduring allure of the countryside, the richness of America's cultural heritage, and the power of photography to transport us to another time and place.
