EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, Julius Rosenwald, part-owner and leader of Sears, Roebuck and Company, is seen seated at the head of a long table during a business meeting. The image, taken in 1917, captures Rosenwald in the prime of his career as a prominent American businessman and philanthropist. Surrounded by a group of other businessmen, Rosenwald exudes confidence and authority, his gaze fixed on the matter at hand. The table is laden with various documents and papers, and the atmosphere is one of focused intensity. The room is adorned with ornate wood paneling and large windows, suggesting a grand and impressive setting. Rosenwald's position as Chairman of the Supplies Committee and Advocate for the Council of National Defense during World War I further underscores his importance as a leader in industry and commerce. The photograph serves as a metaphor for the old boys network and the old boys club that dominated American business during this era. Despite the formal setting, there is a sense of humanity in the image, with each man displaying unique expressions and body language. The photograph is a testament to the power and influence of the business world during the early 20th century, as well as the individual stories and personalities that shaped it. This image is a valuable addition to any collection focused on American history, business, or photography. It is a reminder of the complex and multifaceted nature of the business world, and the enduring impact of individuals like Julius Rosenwald on American society.
