The only name attached to this glass negative is G.V. McLaughlin, and the Library of Congress notes that this title comes from unverified data on the negative or its caption card, so the identity of the subject is still uncertain. The plate is part of the George Grantham Bain Collection, the output of a New York news photo agency that Bain founded around 1899 to supply newspapers with pictures of current events and public figures. Because the agency worked quickly and often relied on handwritten captions, its glass negatives are most useful to researchers as a record of early twentieth-century press photography.
