The only identifying detail in this record is the title, "Dietrich," which the Library of Congress notes is unverified and was taken from the negative or its caption card. The record gives no date, so the sitter and occasion remain unconfirmed. The picture is one of the glass negatives in the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency that supplied news and portrait pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Glass plates like this one record the look of their era in fine detail, and the collection as a whole is a useful window onto New York life of that period.
