EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'Red Cross,' was captured by renowned American photographer Harris & Ewing between 1910 and 1920. The image portrays the interior of a room where volunteers of the American Red Cross are hard at work, providing humanitarian aid during those critical decades. The central focus of the photograph is a table filled with Red Cross banners, flags, and chairs, arranged in a standard position, ready for use. Volunteers are seen seated at the table, engaged in their tasks, while others stand nearby, ready to assist. A large Red Cross banner hangs on the wall behind the table, adding to the sense of unity and purpose in the room. The atmosphere is calm and focused, with volunteers poised to provide aid to those in need. The use of natural light and the simple, uncluttered composition serve to highlight the humanitarian efforts taking place within. This photograph is a testament to the important role the Red Cross played in the United States during the early 20th century, and the dedication of its volunteers in providing aid to their country and community.
