EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the timeless beauty and grandeur of the White House in Washington, D.C., as it appeared around 1905. The Neoclassical architectural masterpiece, designed by Irish-born architect James Hoban and completed in 1814, has served as the official residence and workplace of the President of the United States for over two centuries. In this image, we see the White House's symmetrical facade adorned with intricate details, including Doric columns, ornate moldings, and large arched windows. The lush gardens and grounds, dotted with trees and shrubs, add to the serene and picturesque setting. At the time, the White House was undergoing renovations, with President Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. (known as Theodore Roosevelt or "Teddy" Roosevelt), overseeing the project. The photograph was likely taken using a dry plate or glass negative process, popular during the early 1900s. The image was later published by Detroit Publishing Company, a prominent American publisher of the era, through their subsidiary, Company Detroit Publishing. The photograph is now part of the extensive collections at the Library of Congress, a vital repository of America's rich cultural and historical heritage. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the White House's enduring allure and the architectural elegance of a bygone era.
