Shriners on Water Wagon in Rochester
EDITORS COMMENTS
Between c1910 and c1915
Creator: Bain News Service
In this black-and-white photograph, a group of Shriners proudly ride atop a horse-drawn water wagon in Rochester. The Shriner fraternity is known for its charitable work and masonic traditions, but here they're having the time of their lives on this sunny day.
The men are dressed in their finest attire, complete with elaborate hats and ornate regalia. They gaze directly at the camera, exuding a sense of camaraderie and joy. The horse-drawn vehicle is adorned with colorful streamers and flags, adding to the festive atmosphere.
This photograph was taken by Bain News Service, a pioneering press photography agency that captured life's moments from 1897 until its closure in 1920. Their glass negatives were later used for printing photographs like this one, which now serves as a fascinating glimpse into America's early 20th-century heritage.
The Library of Congress holds the original negative and many other historical images, making it an invaluable resource for historians and photography enthusiasts alike. This photograph is not only a charming portrait but also a testament to the power of storytelling through visual art.
