The title pairs a personal name, O.P. Hubbard, with the territory of Alaska, though the record does not say what his connection to the place was. That makes it a portrait-style subject rather than a view of a landscape or event. The image is one of the glass negatives in the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that supplied newspapers and magazines with photographs in the early 1900s. Because the title comes from unverified agency data, the sitter's identity and the setting should be treated as provisional until confirmed.
