EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing the revered Reverend James Shera Montgomery, Chaplain of The House of Representatives, in the year 1917. The photograph, created by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio, showcases Montgomery on the left side of two ministers, standing amongst a group of members of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (W.C.T.U.) on the steps of the Capitol building. The black and white image, reminiscent of the 1910s, portrays Montgomery in his formal attire, including a dark robe and a hat adorned with a cross. Montgomery's presence at the Capitol was significant, as he served as the spiritual leader and advisor to the House of Representatives during this period. The W.C.T.U., a prominent organization advocating for women's rights and prohibition of alcohol, is seen in the background, adding context to the scene. The members of the group are dressed in their Sunday best, donning hats and dresses, reflecting the era's fashion trends. The image is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on American history, religion, and social movements during the early 20th century. The Harris & Ewing studio, known for its high-quality glass negatives, expertly captured this moment in time, providing a glimpse into the past and the intersection of religion, politics, and social issues. The photograph's composition is striking, with Montgomery standing out against the backdrop of the Capitol building and the W.C.T.U. group. The image invites viewers to reflect on the role of religion in American politics and the impact of social movements during this era. Overall, this photograph is a captivating and thought-provoking piece of heritage art.
