The title pairs a surname, Trumbull, with Harvard, though the Library of Congress notes that it comes from caption cards and has not been verified, so the subject may be a person, a building, or an event on the campus across the Charles River from Boston. The image is a glass negative from the George Grantham Bain Collection. Bain News Service supplied newspapers with photographs of current events and notable figures in the early 1900s, and its glass plates are among the most useful records of that period's news. Because the negative has no firm date, its exact moment is best read through the Bain collection's general era and the Harvard setting.
