Few details survive for this view of Prince Henry at Eton, which the catalog lists only from caption data the Bain News Service wrote on its negatives, so the identification is unconfirmed. The image is a 5 x 7 inch or smaller glass negative from the George Grantham Bain Collection, a New York news photo archive that supplied pictures to American newspapers in the early decades of the twentieth century. Royal figures and elite English schools were popular subjects for such agencies, so the picture offers a glimpse of how transatlantic readers were shown British public life of that era.
