Little is recorded about this picture beyond its title, "H. Lazaro & wife," which the Bain News Service noted on the negative or its caption card without verification, so the couple's identity should be treated as tentative. It survives as a glass negative, a format that photographers relied on in the early twentieth century before flexible film became standard. George Grantham Bain founded his New York agency around 1899 to supply newspapers with pictures of people and events, and the collection holds many sitters whose names were recorded only in passing. Anyone seeking more detail should consult the Library of Congress catalog record and related caption information.
