拍品专文

The quote inscribed below is from the poem A Ballad upon a Wedding by the 17th-century English poet Sir John Suckling. Sloan stated "I had these lines in mind when I saw the scene. I've always written them on every proof. Crowninsheild reproduced it in Vanity Fair [26, Aug. 1926, 51], enlarged, which isn't good for an etching. Then he kept after me for a follow-up in the same vein."
