Four Italian names set this glass negative apart from the many portraits in the Bain collection. The title, Yoland, Giovanni, Mafalda, and Humbert, matches the children of King Victor Emmanuel III, though the Bain News Service's caption data is unverified, so that link is a lead rather than a confirmed identification. The Bain News Service, a New York agency, supplied photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and European royalty were frequent subjects for its wire pictures. The record gives no date or sitting details, so the family connection and the picture's period are best checked against other sources.
