The only identifying detail here is the surname Furtwangler, and the title, which names a wife, is unverified because it comes from information written on the original negative or caption card. The image is a glass negative from the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency founded in 1899 that supplied news photographs to newspapers. Pictures of named individuals and their families were a common part of that work in the early twentieth century, so this portrait reflects how the agency documented public life at the time. The record gives no date or location, so the setting and period would need further research.
