EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from 1911, George Von Lengerke Meyer, a prominent businessman and politician, is seen standing next to First Lady Helen Herron Taft at the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Annapolis, Maryland. The monument, dedicated to the soldiers and sailors who fought in the Civil War, stands proudly in the background, its intricate details and grandeur reflecting the historical significance of the moment. Meyer, dressed in a formal suit and hat, looks directly at the camera with a confident and serious expression. His companion, Mrs. Taft, is equally elegant in her fur-trimmed dress and hat, her gaze fixed on the monument behind them. The First Lady's refined attire and poised demeanor exude the grace and sophistication of the era. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. at the time. The studio, which was founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Newcombe, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and its ability to capture the essence of its subjects. This image, with its crisp details and excellent composition, is a testament to the studio's skill and artistry. The photograph is an intriguing glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashion, politics, and social customs of early 20th century America. It also serves as a reminder of the important role that monuments and historical sites play in preserving the history and heritage of a nation.
