A uniformed King of Spain is the detail that sets this glass negative apart from other Richmond views, though the caption's attribution is unverified and the record gives no date. The plate belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, the archive of the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century. The title follows the agency's original caption labeling, which was written on cards or on the negative and was not independently checked. Its small format, 5 by 7 inches or smaller, was typical of the working plates the service used, often made quickly to meet a news deadline.
