A woman in riding dress sits astride a horse in this glass negative, identified in its record as Adele Rowland. The plate is one of many made by the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that supplied newspapers and magazines with photographs in the early twentieth century. Its photographers covered theater performers, politicians and society figures, and the small plate size reflects the portable cameras of that period. The title comes from caption information the agency wrote on the negatives or cards and has not been independently verified, so the name and the occasion should be treated with some caution.
