The name attached to this glass negative is Ernesto Nathan, though the record notes that the title comes from unverified caption data written by the Bain News Service. If the identification holds, Nathan was a London-born Italian politician who served as mayor of Rome from 1907 to 1913, a period of major municipal reform. The Bain News Service supplied newspapers and magazines with news and portrait pictures of public figures, so this plate reflects the quick, documentary style of early twentieth-century press photography.
