EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled 'Todd, between 1911 and 1920' by Harris & Ewing, captures the introspective gaze of a man named Todd as he diligently attends to his duties as a civil servant in the United States during the 1910s. The image, a glass negative from the Harris Ewing Collection, reveals Todd seated at a wooden desk, surrounded by stacks of papers and a telephone. The telephone, a symbol of the burgeoning telecommunications industry, underscores the importance of communication in his job. The portrait exudes a sense of focus and determination, as Todd's hands delicately handle the papers before him, while his eyes remain fixed on a document in front of him. The setting, with its simple yet functional office furniture, speaks to the routine and orderliness of his profession. The image, a still and silent testament to the daily grind of the American workforce during this era, invites us to reflect on the lives of ordinary people and their contributions to the country's social and economic fabric. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. during the early 20th century. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was known for its high-quality work and its ability to capture the essence of its subjects. This image, a poignant reminder of a bygone era, continues to captivate us with its timeless beauty and historical significance.
