Waterville, ME, circa 1900
[400/600]
A fine example of this sort of portraiture. In
this particular instance, it is all the more inter-
esting in that we have an identified subject.
Despite the ringlets, the subject is a young man
by the name of Carl Gray Browne. Mr. Brown
was born in Roanoke, VA, educated at
Andover and attended Harvard where he took
his BA in 1913. From his dress, it is obvious
that the Browne family had money.

Inscribed on the reverse “Presented by Pap
Chenair.” The name Chenair suggests a
French name, possibly Louisiana.
