The title, Eleanor Tierney, is the one identifying detail this glass negative offers, and it comes from unverified caption data supplied by the Bain News Service rather than a confirmed record. Bain's agency was a New York news photo service that sold pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century, so its work reflects the deadline pressure of press photography in that period. Glass negatives like this one, made before roll film was common, preserve fine detail and a direct record of how those pictures were produced.
