EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph by Harris & Ewing, US Secretary of War Newton Diehl Baker boards the RMS Mayflower in 1917, accompanied by members of the British and French War Commissions. The image captures a significant moment during World War I, as Baker welcomed the Allied delegations to the United States for a visit to the home of George Washington at Mount Vernon, Virginia. Newton Diehl Baker served as the Secretary of War from 1916 to 1921, playing a crucial role in the mobilization and deployment of the American military during the First World War. In this photograph, he is seen wearing a formal suit and hat, stepping onto the Mayflower's gangplank with an air of confidence and determination. The Allied Commission members, dressed in their respective military uniforms and formal attire, can be seen standing behind him, ready to embark on their journey to the United States. The photograph is a testament to the international relations that were being forged during the First World War, as the United States allied itself with the British and French to fight against the Central Powers. The image is also a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and apparel of the early 20th century, with the men dressed in suits and hats, and the women wearing elegant dresses and hats. This photograph is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 40,000 glass negatives and 25,000 photographic prints. The collection is an invaluable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the United States and the world during the early 20th century.
