Rather than one named subject, this glass negative carries a caption listing fourteen surnames, including Wallace, Thomas, and Comte Castillion de St. Victor, which suggests a group of sitters or a run of portraits filed under a single heading. It comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that supplied newspapers with news and portrait photographs in the early twentieth century. The titles were copied from caption cards and were never verified, so the identities of the people shown, and the occasion behind them, should be treated as unconfirmed.
