EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by the talented Burr McIntosh in 1898, transports us back to a significant moment in American history. The image showcases the grandeur of the Army and Navy Building, which served as the headquarters for both the Department of State and the armed forces in Washington DC. With its neoclassical architecture standing tall against a clear June sky, this iconic structure symbolizes strength and power. Its imposing presence on Avenue B&W commands attention from all who pass by. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost feel ourselves transported to that era when America was embroiled in the Spanish-American War. Burr McIntosh's work as an actor turned journalist allowed him to capture not only words but also images that would tell stories for generations to come. His photographs were featured in "The Little I Saw of Cuba" his book documenting his experiences covering the war for Leslie's Weekly magazine. As we admire this piece of artistry, let us reflect on how it represents a pivotal time when our nation asserted itself on an international stage. It serves as a reminder of our country's commitment to protecting its interests while showcasing architectural beauty amidst historical significance. This print is not just a visual representation; it is a testament to Burr McIntosh's skillful eye and dedication to capturing moments that would forever be etched into our collective memory.
