Little is recorded about the sitter beyond her age and pose, so the picture is best understood through its technique. The color was added by hand, brushed onto a black-and-white print, a common method in the decades before practical color photography. Hand tinting let studios make portraits look warmer and more lifelike. Pictures of children and young women were also a staple of early 1900s advertising, including the posters and calendars that helped build the Coca-Cola brand, which is why this image sits among the company's drinks materials.
