Scholarly Remarks and Key Set Data
Remarks
The mount of this photograph is inscribed in an unknown hand: L. G. 6. Because of its similarity to Stieglitz’s inscription on Key Set number 1155, this inscription may indicate a grouping that Stieglitz himself constructed.
The dates for this photograph and Key Set numbers 1154, 1156, and 1158 are based on similarities to Key Set numbers 1153 and 1155.
