The sitter here is recorded only as the Zanelli family, a title the Bain News Service assigned from information on the negative or its caption card, and the record gives no firm date or verified identities. The picture is a glass negative, a medium that photographers used widely until film replaced it in the early twentieth century. Bain's agency, based in New York, sold news and feature photographs to newspapers and magazines, so its archive holds tens of thousands of images of people, streets, events and everyday life from the early 1900s. Because the family's name is unconfirmed, the image is best read as a document of that period's photographic practice.
