Aimé Dupont was a fashionable New York studio where Grainger sat for a number of portraits sometime before November 1915. He had already made his debut to New York audiences and with the help of a manager was energetically promoting his career. These four images indicate how he made the most of a single portrait sitting with printed and hand-written inscriptions added for a more personalised effect. He had numerous post cards featuring these images machine printed with details of his future performances. The studio’s namesake, Aimé Dupont, died in in 1900, but his family, and subsequent future investors, kept his ‘brand’ going until the 1950s.

These portraits were taken in the same sitting at Elliot and Fry studio in London, and demonstrate how a change in lighting and camera angle can significantly alter the appearance of a subject. The studio was founded in 1863 at 55-56 Baker Street by Joseph John Elliott and Clarence Edmund Fry and operated for a century. It specialised in portraits of leading social, artistic, scientific and political figures.

Grainger spent a lot of his life away from home touring as a concert pianist. While his mother was alive he developed a pattern of having photographs of himself taken by professional photographers, which he would then mail to Rose—a way of maintaining the closeness of their bond. This photograph held great significance for him, as it was the last he sent to her before she committed suicide in 1922.

Frederick Morse was a photographer who lived next door to the Grainger household at 9 Cromwell Place, White Plains, in New York. His wife Tonie Morse became Grainger’s manager in 1925. Grainger initially commissioned him to shoot publicity photographs, but as the two men became more familiar with each other, Frederick took many informal images of Percy and Ella Grainger. He and Grainger also exercised together and engaged in bouts of Graeco-Roman wrestling.
