The caption names this subject as Jaritza, which most likely refers to the Moravian-born soprano Maria Jeritza, a leading singer at the Vienna State Opera and the Metropolitan Opera in New York during the 1920s. The second word in the title, "Kuhrrigen," is not identified in the record, and the Bain News Service's own notes flag the caption as unverified. The Bain News Service, a New York picture agency, produced and distributed news and celebrity photographs on glass negatives in the early twentieth century. Its files are valued today for documenting the theater, politics, and daily life of that era.
