Three named passengers, Edw. Beens, Mrs. Siebert, and Colgate Hoyt, are the subjects of this shipboard view, though the catalog notes that the identifications come from unverified Bain News Service caption data. Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that supplied newspapers and magazines with pictures of current events, people, and places in the early twentieth century. Its glass negatives record the everyday life of the period, and group shots like this one, taken on a ship deck or in a ship's public rooms, show the leisure and travel habits of the well-to-do. Because the date is not recorded, the exact voyage remains unknown.
