EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Les collaborateurs du président Wilson; La réception à l'Hôtel de Ville de New-York de M. J.W. Gerard," was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 1" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The image captures a significant moment in diplomatic history as it depicts the reception held at New York City Hall in honor of James W. Gerard's return from Germany in 1917. Gerard, who had previously served as the United States Ambassador to Germany, was a central figure in a diplomatic incident that took place during World War I. The photograph showcases a group of well-dressed men, including Gerard, who stands prominently in the center. Gerard is seen wearing a top hat and a fur-lined overcoat, while other men wear formal suits and hats. The black and white image, reminiscent of the 20th century and the 1910s, captures the essence of the era's fashion and the importance of diplomacy during a time of international conflict. The setting of the photograph is the grand New York City Hall, which adds to the significance of the event. The reception marked the end of Gerard's tenure as ambassador and the beginning of a new chapter in international relations between the United States and Germany. The image serves as a testament to the importance of diplomacy and the role it plays in shaping the course of history.
