This portrait is titled as a Baron von Maltzen and his family, though the title is unverified and the Bain News Service recorded it from the negative or caption card rather than from confirmed identification. The picture has no date, so its exact year is unknown. It is a glass negative, a format common in news and studio photography from the late 1800s into the 1910s, when glass plates gave sharp detail for printing. The Bain News Service, a New York agency founded by George Grantham Bain, supplied photographs to newspapers, and its files preserve many portraits of public figures and their households from that era.
