Colonel Sir Robert Williams, M.P., is the sitter named here, a title that marks him as both a military officer and a member of Parliament. The glass negative dates to September 25, 1921, and was made by the National Photo Company, a Washington, D.C., studio known for portraits of officials and public figures. Glass plates of this period captured fine detail but were fragile, and this one may show streaks or blemishes from the natural breakdown of its original coating. The name and date come from information the company wrote on the negative or its sleeve and have not been independently verified.
