The caption names three parties, Sherrill, Harrihara, and Bliss, and dates the negative to March 2, 1923, though the Library of Congress notes that this caption data is unverified. Like most of the National Photo Company's work, the picture was made by a commercial studio that photographed people, businesses, and events in Washington and beyond during the early twentieth century. The glass plate was a gift from Herbert A. French in 1947. Its surface shows streaks and blemishes from the gradual breakdown of the original emulsion coating, which is typical of glass negatives of this age and worth keeping in mind when judging the image's clarity.
