The caption identifies this view as the home of Gov. Dix in Albany, New York. John Alden Dix served as governor from 1911 to 1912, a brief term that began during a period of reform politics in the state. The picture survives as a glass negative in the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. Bain News Service, based in New York City, supplied press photographs to newspapers, and the title was recorded by the agency and not independently verified, so the link to Dix is worth reading with that in mind.
