The record gives only the title "Mrs. Lloyd George," and the Bain News Service supplied that title without verification, so the sitter's identity is uncertain. The most likely reference is Margaret Lloyd George, wife of David Lloyd George, the British statesman who served as prime minister during the First World War. The glass negative is one of many the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency active in the early twentieth century, produced of public figures and newsworthy people for newspapers and magazines. Its surviving negatives form the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress, which is valuable for its portraits of the period.
