EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, taken between 1914 and 1917 by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio, we see Newton D. Baker, an influential American lawyer, politician, and government official. Baker is best known for serving as the Mayor of Cleveland, Ohio, and later becoming the Secretary of War during World War One. Dressed in formal attire, Baker wears a bowler hat and stands confidently with a handshake partner, whose identity remains unknown. The image captures the essence of the early 20th century, with Baker's sharp suit and bowler hat reflecting the fashion trends of the time. The photograph was taken during a pivotal moment in Baker's career, as he was making significant strides in the political landscape of America. His service as Mayor of Cleveland from 1912 to 1916 laid the groundwork for his appointment as Secretary of War in 1917, a position he held until 1921. The image was captured using a glass negative process, a common photographic technique during the early 1900s. The resulting image is rich in detail, showcasing the textures of Baker's clothing and the intricacies of the studio setting. This photograph is an essential addition to any collection focusing on American history, politics, or fashion during the 1910s. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing insight into the people and events that shaped the world during the first World War. The Harris & Ewing studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a prominent photographic studio in Washington, D.C., known for its high-quality portraits and documentary work. This image is a testament to their skill and artistry, capturing a moment in history that continues to resonate today.
