Here the sitter is named as Miss Beatrice de Bearn, and the negative is dated October 5, 1921, though the catalog notes that the title comes from unverified information recorded by the National Photo Company. The studio, based in Washington, D.C., produced portraits and documented people and events in the city during the early twentieth century. The collection reached the Library of Congress as a gift from Herbert A. French in 1947. Viewers may notice streaks and blemishes on the glass, which the record attributes to natural deterioration of the original coating.
