The only identifying detail in the record is the title, "Votichemko," which appears to be a surname taken from the caption cards or negative sleeves. The record itself notes that the title is unverified, so the sitter, place and occasion remain unconfirmed. The George Grantham Bain Collection holds news photographs made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that sold pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century, roughly 1900 to 1915 by most accounts. Its glass negatives were the standard working medium of press photography at the time, and the set preserves a broad record of urban life, public events and notable figures of that era.
