The sitter is listed as H. Snowden Marshall, though the Library of Congress notes that this name comes from caption cards and other data supplied by the Bain News Service and has not been verified. The record gives no date, so the portrait's exact year is unknown. The Bain News Service, a New York agency that operated from about 1899 into the 1920s, sold photographs of public figures to newspapers across the country. Its glass negatives now serve as a record of the people who appeared in the news during those decades.
