EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, we find Jules J. Jusserand, the Ambassador of France to the United States, standing proudly before the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Annapolis, Maryland, in 1911. Accompanying him on the left is then-President William Howard Taft. Jusserand, a French diplomat and historian, served as the French Ambassador to the United States from 1909 to 1921. Born in Dijon, France, in 1862, Jusserand was a distinguished scholar and author before entering the diplomatic corps. He was a prolific writer and published numerous works on American history and literature. The Soldiers and Sailors Monument, located in Annapolis's City Dock area, honors the soldiers and sailors who fought in the Civil War. The monument is a popular tourist attraction and a symbol of the city's rich military history. This photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing, captures a significant moment in diplomatic history as the French and American leaders come together in a show of unity and friendship. The image is a testament to the enduring bond between the two nations and the important role that diplomacy plays in international relations. The photograph was taken during the early 1910s, a time of significant political change in both France and the United States. Jusserand's tenure as Ambassador coincided with the beginning of World War I, which further strengthened the alliance between the two countries. The photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art Collection, providing a glimpse into the past and offering insights into the people and events that shaped the course of history. The image is a reminder of the importance of diplomacy and the role it plays in fostering understanding and cooperation between nations.
