The record names the sitter as Lindley Garrison, pictured with his wife, though the title comes from unverified caption data. If the identification holds, Garrison was President Woodrow Wilson's Secretary of War from 1913 until he resigned in 1916 over disagreements with the administration about military preparedness. The George Grantham Bain Collection holds glass negatives from the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied newspapers and magazines with photographs of public figures in that period, so this portrait may have been made for a news or feature use. The record gives no date, so the occasion is unknown.
