EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the elegance and affluence of the early 1910s as embodied by Mr. and Mrs. Peter Goelet Gerry at a horse show in the United States. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, showcases the couple's impeccable fashion sense with Peter Gerry wearing a tailored coat and hat, and Martha Gerry donning a beautiful dress and hat adorned with a feather. Peter Gerry was a prominent lawyer and legislator, serving as a Congressman from New York. His wife, Martha Gerry, was also of distinguished background, with her family being prominent in New York society. The Gerrys were known for their love of horses and horse shows, and this photograph captures them in their element. The photograph was taken at a time when horse shows were a popular form of entertainment for the affluent classes. The event was likely held at a prestigious location, with the grandstands filled with spectators dressed in their finest attire. The image is a testament to the importance of horses in American culture during this period and the role they played in the social lives of the wealthy. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a prominent photographic studio based in Washington D.C. The studio, 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 photograph is an excellent example of their work and a valuable addition to any collection of American social history.
