EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "German Squadron Visit To U.S. Moltke, German Battleship - In Hampton Roads, 1912," captures a historic moment in international relations between Germany and the United States. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, depicts the German battleship SMS Moltke anchored in Hampton Roads, Virginia, during a visit to the United States in 1912. The Moltke was one of the most advanced battleships of the German Imperial Navy and was a symbol of Germany's naval power at the time. The visit was a significant diplomatic gesture, aimed at strengthening the relationship between the two countries and promoting peace and cooperation. The photograph shows the battleship anchored in the calm waters of Hampton Roads, with the American flag flying proudly from its mast. The ship's impressive size and sleek design are on full display, as it dwarfs the surrounding boats and ships in the background. The image also captures the picturesque setting of the Hampton Roads harbor, with its blue waters and clear skies. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. The studio was founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1902 and was known for its high-quality glass negatives. The studio's photographers traveled extensively, documenting events and places of historical significance, and their work is now housed in various collections, including the Library of Congress. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of international diplomacy and the enduring power of photography to capture and preserve significant moments in time.
