EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio in the early 1910s, captures the distinguished figure of Gilberto Crespo y Martinez, the Mexican Ambassador to the United States. Dressed in formal attire, Crespo y Martinez exudes an air of sophistication and authority. He wears a bowler hat and carries an umbrella, suggesting a man who is prepared for any weather condition. The Ambassador's outfit is that of a diplomat of the time, with a well-tailored suit, a crisp white shirt, and a neatly tied bow tie. The photograph was likely taken in Washington D.C., where Crespo y Martinez served as Mexico's representative to the United States Congress and other American institutions. The image is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection held at the Library of Congress. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896, was a leading provider of photographic services in the nation's capital during the early 20th century. Their glass negatives capture a rich and diverse record of American history, including many notable figures of the time. This photograph of Gilberto Crespo y Martinez offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and politics of the early 1910s. It also serves as a reminder of the important role that Mexico played in American diplomacy during this period, as the two countries navigated their complex relationship in the aftermath of the Mexican Revolution.
