A negative titled "Hague - at Queen Mother's" points to a visit connected with a royal household, though the Bain News Service caption is unverified and the record gives no date. The agency, founded in New York by George Grantham Bain, supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, so pictures like this were made to be reproduced quickly for the day's stories. Its nitrate film is highly flammable and decays over time, which is why many surviving negatives have been copied to safer stock. Viewers should treat the place and people named in the title as the agency's own label rather than settled fact.
