This glass negative records a portrait of a couple identified in its title as Mr. and Mrs. T. Suffern Tailer, a name that points to a family prominent in New York society in the early twentieth century. The Bain News Service, a commercial press agency, supplied photographs of notable people and events to newspapers, and its glass negatives were a standard format before film became dominant. The title comes from the agency's own notes, which the Library of Congress marks as unverified, so the identities and the exact occasion remain open to further research.
