The name on this glass negative is the Thorner studio, though the record gives no date or subject beyond that title, which came from data the Bain News Service recorded on the plate or its caption card. George Grantham Bain started his news photography service in New York in the early 1900s, supplying newspapers with pictures of people, buildings and events. Its negatives were filed and captioned in batches, so titles like this one are often unverified. Without more detail, the picture is best read as one small piece of the agency's wide, everyday output.
