EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "John Paul Jones - Dedication of Monument, 4/17/12, The Monument, 1912 April 17," captures a historic moment in American history. The image was taken by the renowned photography studio, Harris & Ewing, on April 17, 1912. The monument in question is the John Paul Jones Memorial, located in Washington D.C., which commemorates John Paul Jones, the United States' first naval war hero and the father of the US Navy. Jones is credited with being the only naval officer to receive a Congressional Gold Medal during the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783). In the photograph, John Paul Jones is depicted in full length, dressed in formal attire of the 18th century, complete with a tricorn hat. He stands before a large crowd, with the American flag in the background and a banner bearing his name and the inscription "Father of the US Navy" visible above him. The monument, designed by Charles Henry Niehaus, can be seen in the distance, with its tall column reaching towards the sky. Martha Ewing Kuntze and George W. Harris, both associated with Harris & Ewing, are also present in the photograph, standing to the side of the monument. This image is a significant piece of American heritage art, showcasing the legacy of a pivotal figure in the country's naval history.
