  Titania is a character in Midsummer Night's Dream.

• pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:

  From a performance or pageant at Overbrook School for the Blind--presumably Titania is one of the Overbrook students.

  Here is another photo from the Midsummer Night's Dream production from The Commons, with "Titania" at center:
  
  A June 6, 1914 magazine used the Bain photo with this caption:
  A BLIND TITANIA QUEEN OF THE FAIRIES
  A Midsummer Night's Dream was given this year in the dramatic work of the Pennsylvania Institution for the Instruction of the Blind at Overbrook. The institution's report holds that the drama not only makes the institution known but clears up the old impression that it is a "blind asylum", while in realiity it is "a boarding school for boys and girls who happen to be blind." Most important of all it gives self confidence to blind pupils, helps them to get around, and oflen completely transforms those who are slow to hear and to observe.

  Her portrait appears here, in the 1913-14 Bain News Agency photostream, because she died on December 30, 1913. Sweden's longest-reigning queen: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophia_of_Nassau
