The sitter is identified only as Mrs. Lora Wagner, a name the Bain News Service recorded on its caption cards and that the Library of Congress lists as unverified, so little else about her is known from the record. The picture is a glass negative of 5 by 7 inches or smaller, the format Bain's staff commonly used for news and portrait work. George Grantham Bain founded the agency in New York in the early 1900s, and its files of photographs of people, events and places in the period make up a large part of the Library's holdings. Viewers researching the picture should check the caption cards and the Library's catalog for later corrections.
