Notes
  • "Mary Elizabeth", originally entitled "Alice", had its title changed by the collector to his wife's name because he felt the portrait resembled her as a child. The sitter was the daughter of a friend of the Speicher family and a resident of Woodstock, New York, the artists' colony where Speicher spent his summers. Alice Reynolds was twelve in the summer of 1927 when she sat for the portrait. The artist selected the peasant blouse and the scarf she wears and combed her hair back from face and forehead, thereby transforming this young, contemporary American girl into a universal and classical image of the seriousness, beauty, and dignity of female childhood on the brink of maturity.
