The record names Dr. J. Eastman Sheehan and his wife, though the title comes from unverified information the Bain News Service wrote on its negatives or caption cards, so the identification is best treated as a starting point. The picture is a glass negative from the George Grantham Bain Collection, which holds news and portrait pictures made by Bain's New York agency in the early twentieth century. Glass plates were the standard medium for newspaper and portrait work of that period, and the collection is valued for its record of people and events of the time. Further research would be needed to confirm the sitters and the occasion.
