The title places this glass negative at Trinity Cathedral Episcopal, where a coronation ceremony was photographed, though the record does not say who was crowned or when. The wording comes from caption information supplied by the Bain News Service and is marked unverified, so treat the place and event as a lead rather than settled fact. George Grantham Bain's agency, based in New York from the early 1900s, sold news photographs to newspapers, and its glass plates document the public pageantry that often filled those pages. The costumes, the crowd and the church setting in the frame may tell you more about the occasion than the caption does.
