The only identifying detail in this record is the title, "Young," and the catalog notes that even this comes from unverified information written on the negative or its caption card. The image is a glass negative from the George Grantham Bain Collection, the archive of the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied newspapers with pictures of people, events, and places in the early twentieth century, roughly from 1900 through the 1920s. Because the record gives no date or location, the sitter and setting remain uncertain. Bain's negatives were usually made quickly for the news trade, so the title and any caption should be checked against other sources before the picture is cited.
