EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, captured by Harris & Ewing in 1912, showcases the elegant exterior of the Columbia Country Club in Chevy Chase, Maryland. Designed by Herbert H. Barker and completed in 1911, the country club was a prominent social and recreational hub in the community. The image reveals the grandeur of the clubhouse, with its large columns, intricate stonework, and expansive glass windows that allow for ample natural light. The lush greenery surrounding the building adds to its picturesque beauty, as trees and shrubs frame the scene. At the time, Columbia Country Club was renowned for its golf course, which attracted members from the local elite and beyond. The sport was a popular pastime for many, and the country club provided an ideal setting for both competitive play and leisurely rounds. This photograph, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the charm and sophistication of the early 20th century. The image also highlights the architectural prowess of Herbert H. Barker, whose designs continue to inspire and influence modern-day structures. As we admire this image, we can imagine the bustling activity that once took place on the grounds of Columbia Country Club – the sound of golf clubs hitting balls, the laughter of members enjoying a meal in the clubhouse, and the camaraderie that came with being part of this esteemed institution.
