拍品专文

While the name Mary Hoyt is scratched into a lower part of the strainer and may be a later addition, a reliable source in Kingston, New York in 1959 supported the identification of the sitter as Mary Hoyt. A companion or second family portrait also done by Phillips at approximately the same time was reported to have been in the Hoyt family home in Newburgh, New York.
