EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, James Michael Curley, a prominent Massachusetts Republican Congressman from 1911 to 1914, is depicted in a full-length portrait. Dressed in formal attire, Curley wears a dark coat and striped trousers, accessorized with a bowler hat and a white collar and cuffs. The Congressman's stern expression and confident pose convey a sense of authority and determination. Curley's political career began in Boston, where he served as the Mayor from 1914 to 1915 and again from 1922 to 1925. He later returned to Congress, representing Massachusetts's 10th district from 1929 to 1935 and 1937 to 1945. Known for his charisma and ability to connect with the working class, Curley was a popular figure in Massachusetts politics. The photograph was taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio, which was based in Washington, D.C. The studio, founded by George H. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1912, was one of the most prominent photographic studios in the United States during the early 20th century. The studio's collection includes over 100,000 glass negatives, many of which capture significant historical figures and events. This portrait of James Michael Curley is a testament to the studio's skill in capturing the essence of their subjects and preserving their legacy for future generations. The image offers a glimpse into the fashion and political climate of the 1910s in the United States and serves as an important historical document.
