The only identifying detail for this glass negative is the name Cora Chase, which the Library of Congress lists as unverified and taken from notes the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its caption card. The Bain News Service was a New York photo agency founded by George Grantham Bain in 1899 that supplied pictures to newspapers, and glass plates like this one were the standard working medium of press photographers of that period. Without a confirmed date or subject, the picture is best read as an example of that everyday news practice rather than a documented portrait.
