EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph by Harris & Ewing, taken in 1917, we see Josiah Oliver Wolcott, a prominent American politician who served as a U.S. Senator from Delaware from 1917 to 1921. Dressed in formal attire, Wolcott exudes confidence and poise as he gazes directly at the camera. He wears a dark suit with a crisp white shirt, a black bow tie, and a felt hat perched on his head. The Senator's posture is impeccable, with his shoulders squared and his hands clasped in front of him. The photograph was taken in Washington D.C., the heart of American politics, and the setting is reflected in the ornate background of the image. The Senator's surroundings are adorned with intricate moldings, heavy drapes, and ornate furnishings, all of which add to the sense of grandeur and importance. Josiah Oliver Wolcott was born in Delaware in 1852 and rose to prominence as a lawyer and businessman before entering politics. He served in the Delaware State Senate and was later elected to the U.S. House of Representatives before being appointed to the Senate. During his time in the Senate, he was a vocal advocate for progressive causes, including women's suffrage and labor reform. This photograph is a testament to the fashion and politics of the early 20th century in America. It captures the style and sophistication of the time, as well as the importance of politics and public service in shaping the nation's future. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of American history or political photography.
