The name Rosemary Hollister is given for this glass negative, but the record notes that it is unverified and comes from Bain News Service caption cards. The picture belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, from a New York photo agency that Bain founded around 1899 to supply newspapers with news pictures, public figures and city life. Its small glass plates were the standard working medium of that era, so the negative itself shows early twentieth-century photographic practice. With no firm date recorded, its moment is best approached through the agency's wider output.
