The title on this glass negative is the surname Farrar, which may refer to the American soprano Geraldine Farrar, a leading Metropolitan Opera star in the early 1900s who drew wide press attention. The identification is unverified, so it should be read with caution. The negative comes from the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that supplied photographs to newspapers in the years before 1915, when glass plates like this one were the standard for news work.
