The record names only Mme. Simone as the sitter, with G. Liebert credited as photographer, though the Library of Congress flags these details as unverified. The picture survives as a small glass negative, the format Bain News Service used for quick news and portrait work in the early twentieth century. George Grantham Bain built that service in New York to supply newspapers with images, so portraits like this reflect the steady demand for pictures of notable people. With no date recorded, the negative is best read through its format and the collection it came from.
