EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Red Cross," was captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio between 1910 and 1920. The image showcases a group of Caucasian women dressed in their Red Cross uniforms, standing in a semi-circle formation. The women, who appear to be of various ages, exude a sense of determination and compassion as they don their distinctive nursing apparel, complete with white collars and red crosses. The Red Cross, an iconic American humanitarian organization, was founded in 1881 to provide aid during wars and natural disasters. By the early 20th century, the organization had expanded its mission to include healthcare services and disaster relief within the United States. These women, likely volunteers, are a testament to the organization's commitment to providing aid and care to those in need. The photograph was taken during a time when the Red Cross was gaining significant attention and support in the United States. The image captures the essence of the era, with its focus on community service, healthcare, and the role of women in society. The women's serious expressions and their uniformity in dress underscore the importance of unity and purpose in their work. This glass negative, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable historical artifact that provides a glimpse into the past and the critical role the Red Cross played in American society during the 1910s and 1920s. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the humanitarian spirit that has endured throughout the organization's history and continues to inspire and motivate people today.
