The title names Ambrose Kennedy of R.I., most likely Rhode Island, though the record notes that this identification comes from data written on the negative or its sleeve and has not been verified. The National Photo Company, based in Washington, D.C., produced a large body of glass negatives in the early twentieth century, and its plates often carry brief captions like this one. This negative is dated to about 1921 to 1922 based on others in the same range. The record also notes streaks and blemishes from the natural deterioration of the original coating, which affect how the image reads today.
