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 amongst a group of soldiers and sailors at the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Annapolis, Maryland, in 1911. The image captures a moment in history as President William Howard Taft, dressed in a suit and hat, stands in the center, with Jusserand seated on his right. Jusserand, a French diplomat, was a prominent figure during the early 20th century. Born in Dijon, France, in 1862, he came to the United States to study law at Harvard University. He later became a professor of French literature at Johns Hopkins University and served as the French Consul General in New York City before being appointed as Ambassador to the United States in 1909. The Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Annapolis is a tribute to the brave men and women who served in the military, and this photograph captures a moment of unity and appreciation between the United States and France. The image is a testament to the strong diplomatic relationship between the two countries during this period. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a prominent photographic studio based in Washington, D.C., and is part of the George W. Harris Collection in the Library of Congress. The studio, which was founded by George W. Harris and his wife, Martha Ewing Harris, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and produced many iconic images of American history. Overall, this photograph is a significant historical artifact that captures a moment in time when diplomacy and military appreciation came together in the heart of Annapolis, Maryland. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural exchange that has shaped the United States and France's relationship over the centuries.
