- Description:
- Portrait of a young female weaver holding a shuttle in her lap. A slip of paper in the case identifies her as: "Mary D. Warner, taken about 1854." Probably Mary Dodge Warner of Ipswich, Mass; married her first husband, James P. Archer, in Lowell in 1847. Warner wears a short-sleeved dress, a thin ribbon choker around her neck, a long chain, earrings, and rings on two of the fingers of her right hand. The clasp on the choker, the earrings, the chain, and the rings appear to be tinted in gold. Enclosed in case, square mat.
