William Lever en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Leverhulme whose company became Unilever after his death.

William Hesketh Lever, 1st Viscount Leverhulme, Bt, (19 September 1851 – 7 May 1925) was an English Industrialist, philanthropist and colonialist. Lever personified the Northern, nonconformist conscience: he was Liberal in his politics, earnest in his philanthropic endeavors, and committed to social amelioration and moral improvement at home, as typified by Lever’s company town, Port Sunlight. Although attacked for his labor policies in palm oil plantations in the Congo, he was committed to Britain’s “civilizing mission” overseas.[1] Starting with a small grocery business begun by his father, he began making soap in the 1880s. Lever rode the cresting late-Victorian consumer revolution to build a vast industrial empire spread across the globe, with such famous brands as Lux and Lifebuoy. Four years after his death his enterprises were amalgamated as Unilever, which, by 1930, employed a quarter of a million people and, in terms of market value, was the largest company in Britain

If Eleanor Robson Belmont is in this photo, I think Bain may have misplaced his "X" - the woman at far left looks more like the photo included in her Wikipedia entry: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleanor_Robson_Belmont Assuming this was taken ca. 1910, she would have been in her early 30s.

rockcreek: Looks like you are correct. We will make a note of it in the source data and reload the description.

It may be worth double-checking if the woman at center is Mrs. August Belmont Sr. - perhaps she was still alive at the time? I'm not able to find an image of her online at the moment.

Or might be the wife of the third August Belmont (1882-1919), married in 1906:

is Mrs August Belmont, III
See Bain photo (with comments) that is probably of her, captioned Mrs. A Belmont, Jr.:
