EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from 1914, William Jennings Bryan, a prominent Republican representative from Nebraska, is seen in a full-length portrait with John R. Silliman. The image, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, showcases Bryan in formal attire, including a dark suit, white shirt, and black bow tie. He is also wearing a Panama hat, a popular accessory during this era, and carrying a walking stick. Bryan's political career began in 1891 when he was elected to the United States House of Representatives. He later served as Secretary of State from 1913 to 1915. In this photograph, he is seen in deep conversation with John R. Silliman, whose identity is less known. The backdrop of the image is simple, with a plain wall and a window providing the only context. The photograph is a testament to the fashion trends of the early 1910s, with Bryan's straw boater hat and Silliman's more casual attire reflecting the diverse styles of the time. The image is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 40,000 glass negatives and 25,000 prints. The collection provides a rich visual record of American history, capturing moments from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph of Bryan and Silliman offers a glimpse into the past, providing a glimpse into the fashion, politics, and social dynamics of the time. It is a reminder of the important role that photography plays in preserving history and capturing the essence of a bygone era.
