NOTES:
[1] According to a letter from Mrs. Vinton to Keith MacLeod (1927; in the MFA curatorial files). Mrs. Vinton first lent the painting to the MFA in 1911. [2] Painter Frederic Porter Vinton almost certainly knew Daniel Sargent Curtis and his son, Ralph Wormeley Curtis (b. 1854 - d. 1922), and probably acquired the painting directly from one of them.
