EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Governor Francis E. McGovern of Wisconsin stands to the right, greeting Governor Joseph M. Carey of Illinois in 1912. The image, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, captures the two politicians in formal attire, reflecting the political and social climate of the early 20th century. Governor McGovern, dressed in a suit and tie, wears a top hat, a common accessory for men of power and prestige during this era. His posture is confident and welcoming, with a slight smile playing on his lips. To his left, Governor Carey, also dressed in a suit and tie, returns the gesture with a warm and friendly expression. Despite the similarities in their appearance and demeanor, it is important to note that the two governors were not from the same state. Francis E. McGovern served as the Governor of Wisconsin from 1911 to 1915, while Joseph M. Carey was the Governor of Wyoming during the same time period. The mislabeling of Carey as the Governor of Illinois in the photograph's caption is a common error that has persisted in various archives and collections. The photograph is a valuable addition to the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offering a glimpse into the political landscape of the United States during the 1910s. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing the fashion, politics, and personalities of the time.
