EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Zoo, Washington, D.C.: Llama, 1916," showcases a curious llama peering curiously over a paddock fence at the Smithsonian National Zoological Park in Washington D.C. The image was captured by the renowned photography studio, Harris & Ewing, specifically by George William Harris or Martha Ewing Kuntze, both of whom were prominent photographers for the studio during the early 1900s. The photograph is a glass negative, a common technique used during the 20th century for producing high-quality images. The use of this method allowed for a greater depth of field and exceptional detail, making it ideal for capturing the intricacies of the llama's textured coat and expressive eyes. The National Zoological Park, located in the heart of the nation's capital, was established in 1889 and has since become a beloved institution for both locals and tourists alike. The zoo's collection of exotic animals from around the world drew large crowds, and photographers like Harris & Ewing were there to document the unique moments between visitors and the animals. This photograph, taken in 1916, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when a visit to the zoo was a grand adventure and a chance to witness the wonders of the natural world up close. The llama's inquisitive gaze and the lush greenery of the paddock create a sense of intimacy and connection, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and wonder of these magnificent creatures.
