The title on this glass negative, Cecily Debenham, comes from unverified data on the negative or its caption card, so the sitter's identity and the occasion behind the picture remain uncertain. The plate is part of the George Grantham Bain Collection, the work of a news photography agency that Bain founded in New York around 1899 to supply newspapers with pictures of current events and notable people. Its glass negatives, measuring 5 by 7 inches or smaller, were made for quick reproduction in print, which makes them useful for seeing how press photography looked in the early twentieth century.
