Thirty photographs from the private photo albums of Emlen Knight Davies document vividly her family's journey to Russia at a time when its potential role in the unfolding of the war remained unknown to the rest of the world. The revealing images from Emlen's photo albums include street scenes of Moscow, Russian friends, pictures from fellow diplomats, and images of life in Spaso House, the U.S. ambassador's residence.
