    Portrait of a Visionary: Dow H. Drukker, 1914

    $19.95

    This historical photograph captures Dow H. Drukker, an influential figure in the early 20th century. Taken on April 10, 1914, by the Bain News Service, the image reflects a specific moment in time, a period characterized by significant social and economic changes in the United States. Drukker was notable for his contributions to the business landscape during a time when many industries were rapidly evolving, particularly in urban centers.

    The photograph is a glass negative, a method popular during that era known for its ability to capture fine detail and tonal range. Glass negatives were widely used by photographers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, serving as an important medium for documenting a variety of subjects—from prominent individuals like Drukker to significant events of the time. This technique required skill in both exposure and development, making such images valuable records of history.

    Drukker’s presence in this photograph underscores his role in shaping local economies and business practices in his community. As photography became a means to document influential figures, this image provides a point of connection to the past, allowing us to reflect on the lives and contributions of those who lived during a time of transformation in America.
