RSW's Diary Comments
“Painted prior to 1928. A window picture made in the old studio that burnt in 1933, having the couch arm and the Chinese lantern in it. Published in color on the cover of ‘Country Life in America’, February 1928. Bought from one of my Boston exhibitions by Mrs. W. Scott Fitz, but upon her death this canvas passed into the possession of her son Edward Jackson Holmes, of 296 Beacon St., Boston, grandson of Oliver Wendell Holmes.”
