    Historic Portrait of Edw. J. McNamara, 1913

    $19.95

    This photograph features Edw. J. McNamara, captured in 1913 by the Bain News Service. The image was later published in The Sunday Oregonian on September 28 of the same year, marking an important moment in early 20th-century visual culture. McNamara himself played a significant role during this era, known for his contributions in various capacities, particularly in civic and political realms. His presence in the photograph underscores the trend of having prominent figures carefully documented during an era when photography began to rise as a vital means of communication and record-keeping.

    The Bain News Service was renowned for its extensive portfolio of news photographs, which documented key events and personalities of the time. This particular photo of McNamara is a representation of the growing interest in journalism and the publics desire to be informed about local leaders. The 1910s were a transformative period in America, where images began to shape public perception, and figures like McNamara stood at the forefront of significant social and political changes. This photograph not only captures a moment but also encapsulates the broader narrative of an evolving society, as transitioning technologies and expanding media began to redefine the ways in which people engaged with their world.
