There were at least 2 Mrs. Jancsi Rigo's. The first, the Princess of Chimay (née Clara Ward of Detroit) died in December, 1916.

The second was Catherine Emerson, the former Mrs. Caspar Emerson of Philadelphia, aka Catherine Hadley Rigo. Jancsi Rigo died in New York on February 3, 1927 and she survived him. The negative's date of 2/4/17 supports the possibility that this is the second (at least) Mrs. J. Rigo. A photo of her from a 1925 newspaper article also resembles the woman in this picture:

She later remarried Edward Gordon, and died in 1934 in a Harlem charity ward. From findagrave:
"Kathryn Hadley Gordon
Birth: 1879, USA
Death: Aug. 5, 1934
New York, USA
Daughter of J. E. Hadley
First Husband: Casper E. Emerson, Jr. (1878-1948)

I'm going to be talking about how Flickr relates to archives access in a few weeks - do you think putting this image on Flickr has helped laypeople find this image and use it for their needs, or has it just driven more users to ask for the actual photograph in the National Archives? Thanks.

The U.S. National Archives said:
Hi photosharp, Thanks including the National Archives in your presentation. So far, anecdotally, we have not seen an increase in requests for reproductions of photographs since we joined the Flickr community. It seems that making photos available on Flickr has allowed the public and researchers to find images like this one of Nixon and Elvis and use them for their needs. Interestingly, althought Nixon and Elvis is the most requested photo at the National Archives, it is not the most viewed on our Flickr photostream. This photo of two women at U.S. Steel in oxygen masks has gotten almost three times as many views (3,064 compared to 1,087 views): www.flickr.com/photos/usnationalarchives/3660777810/. Good luck with your presentation! Thanks, Jill (U.S. National Archives)
