The record gives a title, "Bandaging wounded," and places it within the George Grantham Bain Collection, which holds glass negatives from the Bain News Service, a New York agency that sold news photographs to newspapers from the early 1900s into the 1920s. The date is unknown, and the title comes from caption cards that the service itself wrote, so the scene is not independently confirmed. Even so, the image belongs to a body of work that documented wartime and emergency medical care, and it is worth looking at the way the figures are arranged around the injured man and the care he is receiving.
