EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "French Commission," was captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio between 1910 and 1920. The image portrays a distinguished group of individuals, likely a commission or delegation from France, gathered in front of a neoclassical building facade. The architectural backdrop, adorned with columns and intricate details, exudes an air of authority and grandeur. The group is composed of both men and women, some dressed in fashionable clothing of the era, while others wear military uniforms. The women don elegant dresses, some with hats, while the men are impeccably dressed in suits and ties. The group's diverse attire reflects the various roles and backgrounds of the individuals present. The photograph was taken at the Capitol Building or another neoclassical structure, possibly in the United States, as indicated by the Harris & Ewing provenance. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a leading photographic studio in Washington D.C. during the early 20th century. Their work, including this image, is now part of the permanent collection at the Library of Congress. The black and white glass negative, a testament to the studio's mastery of the medium, captures the essence of the time, showcasing the intersection of fashion, politics, and architecture during the 1910s and 1920s.
