The only identifying detail on this glass negative is the single word "Jande," a title the National Photo Company recorded on the negative or its sleeve. The company was a Washington, D.C., commercial studio active in the early twentieth century, and its large-format glass negatives, made around 1918 to 1920, capture the city's daily life, public events, and visitors. Glass plates like this one were the standard medium of the period, offering sharp detail. Viewers should note the streaks and blemishes that come from the breakdown of the original emulsion coatings over time, which are part of the object's physical history.
