EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures Rear Admiral William Shepherd Benson, the Chief of Naval Operations for the United States Navy in 1914. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases Benson in full uniform, standing tall and confident with a stern yet resolute expression on his face. He wears the traditional naval uniform of the time, complete with a white shirt, navy blue jacket, and a wide-brimmed Panama hat adorned with a gold band. The admiral's decorations and medals are proudly displayed on his chest, signifying his distinguished military career. The background of the photograph is simple, with a plain white wall as the only visible element. The focus is clearly on Benson, who exudes an air of authority and experience. The photograph was taken during a pivotal time in naval history, as the United States Navy was expanding and modernizing its fleet in response to international tensions leading up to World War I. Benson's tenure as Chief of Naval Operations was marked by his efforts to improve naval readiness and modernize the fleet. He oversaw the construction of new battleships and the implementation of new technologies, such as underwater listening devices and aircraft carriers. The photograph serves as a visual reminder of Benson's important role in shaping the United States Navy during a critical period in its history. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a prominent photographic studio in Washington D.C. at the time. The studio, which was founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and its ability to capture the essence of its subjects. This photograph is a testament to the studio's skill and artistry, as well as a valuable historical record of a significant figure in American naval history.
