Richard Haldane, Viscount Haldane, Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain, visiting the United States in 1913. New York Times, 31 Aug 1913 uses a cropped version of this photo. The caption identifies the gentleman on the right as Sir Kenneth Muir Mackenzie; the LOC text seems to have misread Bain's "K" as an "H". Accompanying story: "WEST POINT, Aug. 30. -- Viscount Haldane, Great Britain's Lord High Chancellor and former British War Secretary, spent a busy three hours at the Military Academy this afternoon. Accompanied by a distinguished party, the Lord High Chancellor sailed up the Hudson on J. Pierpont Morgan's yacht Corsair, arriving at West Point at 1:30." Wikipedia: J.P. Morgan, Jr. (corrected per Richard Arthur Norton, thanks; yeah he looked too young and unscarred here to be the father.) Viscount Haldane Kenneth Muir Mackenzie
Richard Norton said:
A correction, it is J.P. Morgan Jr. His father had already died that year on March 31, 1913: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._P._Morgan,_Jr.

The detail present in these vintage photos is always amazing considering the technology of the time, although it was state of the art then. Viewed large, the background structure looks sharper than the three men, probably because of a slow exposure and a little movement by the subjects.

Yes, and they say you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Now stay off the furniture!

Nancy Bavin ? - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16721709

"Miss Nancy Bavin was in orange and white printed chiffon with a natural-toned baku hat. ... "

Whoever it is, she looks fabulous!
Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
beachcomber australia This is not as clear as the others, if only they images were in colour! It does say she was in a 'printed chiffon' dress, and this one doesn't appear to be printed. We were thinking this one might be her: bit.ly/LDg8Nl

Deetje Andriesse you look terrific. I googled the name to find several references in the fashion and social pages of 1930s Sydney. Somewhere out there there will be relatives and friends who will love to see this photo.
pellethepoet said:
beachcomber australia Yes, there are rather a lot aren't there? If this is her, it is of special significance because it is such an early portrait. The other numerous (but poor quality) photos that appear in the society pages are from the mid-late 30's. I think these newspaper articles on Deetje Andriesse are of particular interest -

In 1935 she was photographed by Harold Cazneaux. The photo appeared in the February issue of The Home magazine - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/55537947

In April 1937 she was photographed at work in her new studio in the Victoria Arcade (somebody tell agrippinamaior!). She had just returned from Europe, where she had studied leather-work for 2 years - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/17363797

In 1938 Thea Proctor painted her portrait - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/17538248, which was exhibited at the Macquarie Galleries in November - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/17540382

Also, it would appear she immigrated to Australia in 1922 with her parents and a brother - mariners.records.nsw.gov.au/1922/09/032hou.htm

beachcomber australia pellethepoet She does look lovely. She was known in Sydney's art circles, but as you say pellethepoet, there are no earlier images of her except this, which is not very clear: nla.gov.au/nla.news-article16808372

This one, nla.gov.au/nla.news-article40994836, is clear, but it doesn't look much like her. The description we included above from the newspaper report of the JAVA event seems similar to this woman's clothing, however, it is difficult to say for sure that it is her.
