EDITORS COMMENTS
great image of Brigadier General Henry Granville Sharpe of the United States Army, taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing in 1917. The photograph captures General Sharpe in full length, dressed in the uniform of the era, complete with a straw boater hat. The image exudes an air of authority and confidence, as the General gazes off into the distance with a serious expression. At the time of this photograph, the United States had recently entered World War I, and General Sharpe was likely serving in a prominent role within the military. His rank as a Brigadier General indicates that he held a significant position within the armed forces. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a prominent photography studio based in Washington D.C. at the time. The studio, founded by George H. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1902, was known for its high-quality portrait photography and was particularly popular among political figures and members of the military. This image of General Sharpe is a testament to the studio's skill in capturing the essence of its subjects. The photograph is a glass negative, which was a common method for producing photographs during the early 20th century. The resulting image has a timeless quality, transporting us back to a bygone era. The image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which contains over 25,000 glass negatives and is an invaluable resource for historians and researchers studying the history of the early 20th century in the United States. Overall, this photograph of Brigadier General Henry Granville Sharpe is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the uniforms, customs, and attitudes of the military during the First World War.
