EDITORS COMMENTS
great image of William Rufus Day, captured in a formal portrait taken by the renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing in the early 1910s. At the time, Day held two significant positions in the United States government: Secretary of State from 1898 to 1902, and Associate Justice of the Supreme Court from 1902 to 1922. Day's impeccable attire reflects the formalities of the era, with a crisp, dark suit, a white shirt, and a black bow tie. He wears a top hat, adding an air of distinction and authority to the portrait. The background is simple, with a plain, dark backdrop that allows the subject to take center stage. Day's portrait is a testament to the political and diplomatic achievements of the early 20th century in the United States. As Secretary of State, he played a key role in American foreign policy, and later, as a Supreme Court Justice, he helped shape the legal landscape of the country. The image is a glass negative, and it is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection held by the Library of Congress. The studio, founded by George H. Harris and his wife, Martha Ewing Harris, was a leading photographic studio in Washington, D.C., known for its high-quality portraits of politicians, diplomats, and other notable figures. This portrait of William Rufus Day is a prime example of their skill and artistry. The image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashion, politics, and culture of the early 1900s in America. It is a valuable addition to any collection of American history, and a testament to the enduring legacy of Harris & Ewing as a leading photographic studio of its time.
