Titled as the Czar reviewing Russian troops, this glass negative carries an unverified caption, and its record gives no date. If the title holds, the ruler was Nicholas II, who held the throne from 1894 until his abdication in 1917, a period when military reviews were staged to project imperial power. The Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century, made images like this for quick publication, and glass plates of the period preserve remarkable detail.
