Two prominent British statesmen, David Lloyd George and Arthur Balfour, appear to be the pair named in this title, though the record is abbreviated and the identification is unverified. Lloyd George led the British government as prime minister from 1916 to 1922, and Balfour served as foreign secretary during much of the First World War, when he helped draft the 1917 declaration supporting a Jewish national home in Palestine. The Bain News Service, a New York picture agency active in the early twentieth century, supplied images like this one to newspapers, reflecting the steady demand for portraits of public figures.
