The record for this glass negative names its subject as Francis Crowninshield, but the title comes from caption data the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its card, and that data was never verified, so the identification should be read as provisional. The George Grantham Bain Collection holds more than 40,000 negatives from the New York agency, which photographed public figures, theatrical people, and everyday news for newspapers and magazines in the early twentieth century. The record gives no date, so the sitter's setting and the year of the sitting remain open questions for researchers to check.
