Bain's photo is cropped from this better-preserved image, now in the collection of the Imperial War Museum. Its caption:"Pre-War Life in Brussels - A portrait of nurse Edith Cavell as she sits in a garden with her two dogs. The dog on the right, "Jack" was rescued after her execution."

"Piracy through a Barbarian Lens" is a paper which discusses this incident, this photo, and their treatment by historians and anthropologists. I don't see it published anywhere, but the author could be contacted.
