The caption identifies it as an oil painting (9½" x 7") by Matthew Marié, 1839–1917, with a note that the picture is courtesy of the Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University. The image depicts a young girl with butterflies near her face.

On the right side:

• A black-and-white photograph of a small bronze statue titled “Eve” by Franz Barwig (1868–1931), a Viennese sculptor. The caption explains it is one of over 20 bronzes and bronzes by Barwig now on exhibit at the Busch-Reisinger Museum (through November).
• Below the statue photo is a handwritten note: “Hannah Gorse Nov 5, 1971”, likely indicating who clipped or donated the item.
