EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Mason's International Congress of 33rd Degree - Richardson Shaking Hands with Unidentified," was captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio in the United States during the 1910s. The image showcases two distinguished men dressed in the regalia of the Freemasons, a secret society known for its ancient traditions and symbolism. The man on the left is identified as Richardson, wearing a bowler hat and a sash adorned with Masonic symbols. He extends his hand in a warm greeting to an unidentified man on the right. Both men exude an air of confidence and respect, reflecting the brotherhood and camaraderie that is central to Freemasonry. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashion and social dynamics of the early 20th century. The men's clothing, with their tailored suits and formal hats, are reminiscent of the era's sartorial elegance. The image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection, housed in the Library of Congress, and provides a valuable record of American history and culture. The photograph's exact location and context remain a mystery, but it is believed to have been taken during the International Congress of the 33rd Degree of Freemasonry. The image is a testament to the enduring nature of Freemasonry and its continued influence on American society, making it a valuable addition to any historical or Masonic collection.
