Capt. Simmons & friends, 1893 - A Glimpse into Camaraderie and Fashion in 19th Century America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph from 1893 showcases Capt. Simmons and his group of friends at Camp McKibbin, possibly located in Marshall Hall, Maryland. The creator of this intriguing image remains unknown but has left behind a remarkable snapshot that offers us a glimpse into the past. In this portrait, we see men and women dressed in their finest attire of the time, reflecting the fashion trends of late 19th century America. The men don military uniforms as officers while some sport straw boater hats, adding a touch of casual elegance to their appearance. The women stand proudly among them, showcasing their own stylish clothing choices. The setting is a military camp where tents dot the landscape, indicating that these individuals are part of the United States Army during an era marked by warfare and conflict. Their united presence suggests strong bonds forged through shared experiences on duty. As we delve deeper into this still image preserved by glass negatives from the Brady Handy Collection at the Library of Congress, it becomes clear that this photo holds historical significance beyond its aesthetic appeal. It serves as a testament to both personal relationships within military circles and societal norms surrounding dress codes during Victorian times. Though many questions remain unanswered about these individuals' identities or specific purpose for gathering at Camp McKibbin in 1893, one thing is certain - they embody an enduring spirit captured within this timeless photograph
