The record ties this glass negative to a choir from a church whose name is given as "Epithany," most likely a misspelling of Epiphany, though the title comes from unverified data the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve. The picture is dated between 1910 and 1926, a period when the company, a commercial studio in Washington, D.C., produced large numbers of portraits and views of local people and institutions. Herbert A. French gave the negative in 1947, and its surface shows streaks and blemishes from the natural breakdown of the original coating, which affects how the image reads.
