The record names only a woman, Georgia Ingram, and offers no date, so what we can say about this picture rests on its source. It is a glass plate negative, sized 5 by 7 inches or smaller, from the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. Bain News Service, the agency Bain founded in New York in 1899, sold news and feature photographs to newspapers across the country in the early decades of the twentieth century, and its glass negatives are among the most valuable records of that period. The title comes from Bain's own handwritten notes, which the Library describes as unverified, so the sitter's identity is worth confirming before relying on it.
