EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a pivotal moment in international history as the Russian peace commission arrives at Portsmouth, New Hampshire, in 1905. The Russian diplomats, led by Count Sergei Witte and Baron Roman Rosen, are seen here in formal attire, engaging in conversation with American naval officers near the Armory at the Portsmouth Navy Yard. The Portsmouth Peace Conference was a significant event in the aftermath of the Russo-Japanese War, which marked the first time that an Eastern Asian conflict was resolved through diplomatic means rather than military conquest. The image showcases the meeting of frontiers between the Eastern and Western worlds, with the diplomats dressed in their respective national garb, standing in stark contrast against the exterior of the historic building. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the political landscape of the early 20th century, providing a unique window into the world of diplomacy and international relations during a time of great change.
