EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "D. C. : AUTOMOBILE, c1919" takes us back in time to the early 20th century. The image showcases an elegant automobile owned by Mrs. Charles W. Richardson, parked gracefully in the driveway of her Washington, D. C. home. Photographed by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1919, this snapshot captures a moment of sophistication and status within America's upper class society during that era. The vehicle itself is a symbol of wealth and luxury, with its sleek design and pristine condition. Intriguingly, we see a man standing beside the car who appears to be its chauffeur or valet - perhaps ready to assist Mrs. Richardson on her next journey through the bustling streets of Washington D. C. The photograph also highlights other elements such as a spare tire attached to the side of the automobile – a reminder of the challenges faced during those times when road conditions were not always ideal. Overall, this image provides us with a glimpse into an era where automobiles were still relatively new and exclusive possessions for only those belonging to the upper echelons of society. It serves as a testament to both technological advancements and social dynamics prevalent during that period in American history.
