EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing George Edmund Foss, a prominent Representative from Illinois during the early 1900s. The photograph, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases Foss standing confidently, dressed in formal attire suitable for the political climate of the time. He wears a dark suit, white shirt, and a bowler hat, which was a popular accessory among men in the early 20th century. The addition of an umbrella adds an element of intrigue and suggests that this photograph was taken outdoors, possibly during a rainy day. Foss served as a Representative from Illinois from 1895 to 1913 and again from 1915 to 1919. His political career spanned over two decades, making him a significant figure in American politics during the 1900s. The photograph, taken in the 1910s, is a testament to the fashion trends of the time and the importance of appearance in politics. The image is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which features over 10,000 glass negatives taken by the photographic studio between 1910 and 1930. The collection provides a valuable historical record of Washington D.C. and American political and social history during this period. The photograph's creators, Harris & Ewing, were a renowned photography studio based in Washington D.C. that documented many notable figures in American history. This image of George Edmund Foss is a prime example of their exceptional work and their contribution to American visual history.
