EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Boy Scouts, Boy Scout Farm, 1917," captures a group of young Boy Scouts in the midst of their agricultural endeavors at the Boy Scout Farm. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, portrays a scene of industriousness and camaraderie as the boys work together in a cornfield. The photograph is a testament to the Boy Scout Movement's commitment to teaching practical skills and fostering a connection to the natural world. The boys, dressed in their uniforms and wearing sturdy work clothes, are seen harvesting the cornfield under the watchful eye of their adult leaders. The countryside setting, with its rolling hills and open fields, adds to the idyllic atmosphere of the scene. The photograph was taken at the Boy Scout Farm, a working farm operated by the Boy Scouts of America, which provided opportunities for Scouts to learn farming and agricultural skills. The farm was located in Bladensburg, Maryland, and was a popular destination for Scouts from across the country. The photograph was captured by Harris & Ewing, a prominent photography studio based in Washington, D.C. The studio was founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing in 1902 and was known for its high-quality glass negatives. The studio's collection includes many iconic images of American history, making this photograph an important addition to the heritage art community. This photograph not only provides a glimpse into the past but also highlights the enduring values of the Boy Scout Movement, which continues to inspire and shape the lives of young people today.
