Apparently there was some confusion on the referee's part in this match: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9901E1D61538E633A...

Looks like the caption is actually Wolgast - Murphy, I think. According to the New York Times, Tommy Murphy and Ad Wolgast fought a 20-round draw in San Francisco on Feb. 22, 1913. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9A03EFDA133BE633A...

This is Frau Rose Edwards (in the strap dress), the wife of the welterweight German boxer Paul Maschke from Berlin, who went by the alias of "Joe Edwards".
"Joe Edwards" was the light-weight champion in London in 1900, and in addition to an active fighting schedule, "Joe Edwards" authored a book on boxing in 1912, entitled "Boxen. Ein Fechten mit Naturwaffen" (translated: "Boxing. Fencing with nature weapons”). He also taught at the Berlin Boxing Club and ran the "Berlin School of Boxing", ("American-Athletic-Club") in Berlin. [1] [2]
This photograph was likely taken from Joe Edwards' 1912 book. [3] Shown below is another LOC photo-illustration on Flickr, that was taken from this book, as well as a link to two other photo-illustrations (not on Flickr) that were taken at the same time. From the series it is likely that all four photo-illustrations are posed, mock-boxing, rather than an actual match.
