The only identifying detail for this picture is its title, Clare Vernon, which the Bain News Service recorded on the negative or its caption card. The Library of Congress notes that this information is unverified, so the sitter and the date remain uncertain. George Grantham Bain started his news photo service in New York around 1900, selling pictures to newspapers and magazines, so the collection reflects the fast pace of a commercial press agency. Glass negatives like this one, 5 by 7 inches or smaller, were a common working medium for photographers of the period and often hold fine detail.
