This glass negative is catalogued under the name of Ignaz Friedman, the Polish-born pianist known for his interpretations of Chopin and for his concert tours in the United States. The record lists the title as unverified data supplied by the Bain News Service, so the identification rests on that caption rather than on a confirmed date or event. Bain's New York agency made pictures of performers, politicians and public figures for newspaper use in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives are valued today as a record of how such people were presented to the press during that era.
