EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph taken in Annapolis, Maryland, in 1911, Marshal-Admiral the Marquis Togo Heihachiro of the Imperial Japanese Navy stands proudly next to Captain John H. Gibbons of the United States Navy. The image captures a significant moment in international relations as the two naval officers exchange greetings. Admiral Togo, dressed in full admiralty uniform, is admired for his role as the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Combined Fleet during the Russo-Japanese War. His impressive military career earned him the title of Marquis and the respect of his peers. Captain Gibbons, on the other hand, is the superintendent of the prestigious United States Naval Academy in Annapolis. He is seen wearing the traditional uniform of the U.S. Navy, complete with a cap and headdress. The photograph was taken during a time when the United States and Japan were forging stronger diplomatic ties. The horse-drawn carriage in the background adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the scene, further emphasizing the importance of the meeting. This photograph is a valuable piece of history, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio. The image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection held at the Library of Congress, which documents various aspects of American life during the 20th century. The collection includes glass negatives, providing a unique glimpse into the past. The photograph is a testament to the rich history of international relations, showcasing the meeting of two influential naval officers from different countries. It is a reminder of the importance of diplomacy and the role that cultural exchange plays in shaping our world.
