EDITORS COMMENTS
Football: Costello, Georgetown-Virginia Game, 1912" is an evocative photograph capturing the intensity and passion of an early American football match. Taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, this image transports us back in time to the 1910s and the campus of Georgetown University. The photograph features a dynamic scene on the football field, with players from both teams locked in a fierce struggle for possession of the ball. The focus is on Costello, a determined Georgetown player, as he kicks the ball with all his might, his powerful leg extended and muscles tensed. His teammates and opponents surround him, creating a chaotic yet focused atmosphere. The photograph is a testament to the dedication and athleticism of these early footballers, who played the game with a raw energy and passion that has endured through the decades. The image also serves as a reminder of the rich history of American football and its deep-rooted connection to education and community. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a prominent Washington D.C. photography studio founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing. The studio, which operated from 1910 to 1955, captured a wide range of subjects, from political figures and social events to everyday life. This particular image, taken during the Georgetown-Virginia game in 1912, is a valuable addition to the studio's extensive archive. The photograph is a glass negative, which was a common photographic process during the early 20th century. It is now part of the George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, making it an important historical document and a valuable resource for researchers and scholars of American history and culture.
