EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'National Theater, between 1910 and 1920,' captures the grandeur of a bygone era in American cultural history. Taken by renowned photography duo Harris & Ewing, the image showcases the impressive facade of the National Theater, located in Washington D.C., United States, during the early 20th century. The National Theater was a significant playhouse in the District of Columbia, attracting crowds with its diverse range of productions. The photograph, taken as a glass negative, reveals the theater's intricate architectural details. The building's imposing structure, with its ornate columns and large, arched windows, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The theater's sign, proudly displaying its name, stands tall against the backdrop of the city's urban landscape. The photographers, George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, were a dynamic duo who captured the essence of America during this period. Their work, which includes this stunning image, is now part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. The collection offers a valuable glimpse into the country's social, cultural, and historical landscape during the 1910s and 1920s. This photograph not only provides a visual record of a significant architectural landmark but also serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that the National Theater represented during this time. The image invites us to reflect on the role that theaters and live performances have played in shaping our collective memory and identity.
