This Bain News Service glass negative is titled for Baron Ago von Maltzan, a German diplomat of the Weimar years, though the record does not confirm the identification and gives no date. Bain's studio worked mainly in New York and Washington, supplying press photographs of visiting officials, diplomats, and public figures to newspapers. Portraits from this period, when Germany was rebuilding its foreign service after the First World War, help show how the country presented its diplomats abroad. Because the caption is unverified, the sitter's identity and the occasion should be checked against other sources before the picture is cited.
