EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Deutschland - German Submarine at Baltimore, 9-10 July 1916," captures a pivotal moment during the First World War. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, depicts the German submarine U-23, docked in the quarantine area of Baltimore's harbor. The submarine's imposing presence is a testament to the military might of the Central Powers during this time. The United States, officially neutral in the conflict, had been experiencing increasing tensions with Germany due to the latter's unrestricted submarine warfare. The sinking of several American merchant ships led to the Lusitania incident in May 1915, further straining relations between the two nations. This photograph was taken during a brief visit of the German submarine to the United States for repairs. The submarine's arrival caused a great sensation, with thousands of curious onlookers gathering to catch a glimpse of the enemy vessel. The image shows the submarine under heavy guard, surrounded by American warships, reflecting the uneasy alliance between the two countries. The photograph, taken by George H. Harris or Martha Ewing Kuntze of Harris & Ewing, is a valuable historical record of this significant event during the First World War. The glass negative, now part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, provides a unique perspective into the political and military tensions of the early 20th century.
