Pan American Mass, Thanksgiving Day At St. Patrick's - Father Russell, Taft, Mrs. Taft, and Maj. Butt, 1912
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph taken by renowned American photography studio, Harris & Ewing. This image captures a significant moment in history, as it depicts a Roman Catholic service held at St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Washington, D.C. The photograph features four prominent figures of the time. At the center stands Father William Thomas Russell, dressed in his ecclesiastical attire, leading the mass. To his right, US President William Howard Taft and his wife, Helen Herron Taft, are seen dressed in their Sunday best. The President dons a formal suit and top hat, while the First Lady wears an elegant fur-trimmed dress and a large hat adorned with flowers. To the left of Father Russell stands Major Archibald Butt, a close friend and military aide to President Taft. Major Butt, who is dressed in his military uniform, would tragically lose his life just a few months later when the British liner RMS Titanic sank on its maiden voyage in April 1912. This photograph, taken on Thanksgiving Day in 1912, thus serves as a poignant reminder of a time long past and the lives that intersected in the nation's capital. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American history, fashion, or religious history. The crisp black and white image, taken from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, showcases the intricacies of the early 20th-century fashion scene and offers a glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential figures of the time. This photograph is a testament to the power of images to transport us back in time and connect us to our shared history.
