Captioned as an Armenian girl in Arab dress, this glass negative carries a title that Bain News Service recorded on its negatives or caption cards, and the record flags that information as unverified, so the sitter's identity and background remain uncertain. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that George Grantham Bain founded around 1899 to supply news photographs to newspapers, and its glass negatives cover a wide range of subjects from the early twentieth century. Viewers interested in costume or portraiture may find the dress and staging the most telling details, since the photographer or sitter may have chosen them deliberately.
