The record identifies this portrait only by the sitter's name, Louise Horner, and it is a photoprint, a type of image made by a process that could be reproduced in quantity and sold cheaply. The caption credits Aimé Dupont of New York City and labels the print "No. 8," which suggests it was one of a numbered series. Photoprints like this were popular around 1909, when studio portraits of stage performers and other public figures circulated widely as collectible keepsakes. The identifying details come from an unverified caption card, so the sitter's identity and the date should be treated as provisional.
