EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, we see a historic meeting between two distinguished naval figures: Marshal-Admiral Togo Heihachiro of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Captain John H. Gibbons of the United States Navy. The image was captured in Annapolis, Maryland, in 1911. Togo Heihachiro, dressed in full admiral's uniform with a distinctive bowler hat, was a renowned naval officer who had led Japan to a decisive victory in the Russo-Japanese War just a few years earlier. His presence in Annapolis likely reflected Japan's growing international influence and its burgeoning relationship with the United States. Captain John H. Gibbons, on the other hand, was the superintendent of the United States Naval Academy, responsible for the education and training of future naval officers. Gibbons is seen here in his military uniform, standing slightly behind Togo with a serious expression. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the international relations of the early 20th century, as well as the fashion and military traditions of the time. The image is a testament to the importance of naval warfare and diplomacy in shaping the world we live in today. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection focused on international relations, naval history, or fashion and clothing in the 20th century. It is a reminder of the rich heritage of naval traditions and the importance of diplomacy and understanding between nations. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington, D.C., and is part of the George W. Harris Collection in the Prints and Photographs Division of the Library of Congress.
